A good April Fool’s joke gets one person, a great one confounds a whole room and makes good use of props. Kudos to Washington head coach Chris Petersen for doing the latter.
Chris Petersen fools the entire Washington football team with fake uniforms
What, you mean you DON’T want “DAWGS” on your butt?
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
His team was called into a 7:15 am meeting on Tuesday to be shown radical new changes to the Huskies uniform. Petersen plays it off like it’s part of Nike’s rebrand only to unveil a horrifying union of gold and purple, complete with “DAWGS” written on the butt and a new logo that harkens back to 1900 and the story of a homeless dog.
The players were pretty excited about the change.
Previously, Houston’s Tony Levine did the same with even uglier uniforms and a much bigger player reaction.
