The Colorado School of Mines football team has once again amazed fans and followers with their iconic roster photos, continuing a beloved tradition that sets them apart from the rest. If you’re not in the know, the Orediggers have a history of turning their annual picture day into something truly special. Instead of sticking to the usual straightforward headshots, the players go all out with bold hairdos, quirky facial hair, and a flair for the unconventional.

This year’s lineup didn’t disappoint. The 2024 roster photos were released on Monday, showcasing the team’s creativity and sense of fun. Blue hair dye and bleach took center stage, with players sporting everything from electric blue mohawks to bleached blonde locks. It’s clear that these photos are more than just a formality—they’re a chance for the players to express themselves and have a little fun before the serious business of football season begins.

The tradition has become a fan favorite, with people eagerly awaiting each year’s roster release to see how the team will outdo themselves. The Orediggers have turned what could be a routine event into a highlight of the season, and this year’s photos are no exception. We’ve put together a list of 12 of our favorite photos from the 2024 roster (in no particular order) to showcase the team’s incredible spirit and style.

#80 Jack Walters

Jack was clearly inspired by Hugh Jackman’s return as Wolverine in “Deadpool & Wolverine.” His fearful stare is also similar to the look he sees from the poor defensive lineman assigned to cover him.

#99 Jacob Sanders and Gavin Prellwitz

Jacob and Gavin need to share the name of their stylist because this updo is fantastic. Will it fit in a helmet? Most likely not. But who would want to hide that gorgeous horn anyway?

Jaxon Sayers

From updos to “downdos.” It takes talent to move hair from the top of your head to your chin. Jaxon could’ve stuck with a traditional fake beard but took it a step further by adding the fake mustache. Your extra effort did not go unnoticed, Jaxon.

#34 Carter Forsythe

Who needs a helmet when you have thick, voluminous curls like those? Someone get Carter in a Head & Shoulders commercial!

#46 Brady Zingelmann

Brady did not hold back when it came time for the blue dye. Hopefully, his bathroom sink is not permanently stained.

#57 Steve Street

Steve also did not hold back when it came to the blue dye. What made this look stand out was the artistic “M” (presumably for Mines) on his right cheek. Way to show school spirit on and off the field, Steve!

#4 Braelon Tate

For his roster photo, Braelon decided to turn the clock forward by 60 years. Let me tell you, he nailed the silver fox look.

#58 Brayden Amacker

Brayden Amacker

Similar to Jack, Brayden was also seemingly inspired by classic film characters. He drew a play right out of “Monsters Inc.” and decided to recreate Boo’s signature ponytail look.

#71 Christian Bendetto

Christian Bendetto

Speaking of characters, Christian has the perfect pirate look! If Disney decides to make a live-action version of “Peter Pan,” he needs to be cast as Captain Hook.

#51 Sean Gilbert

Sean couldn’t decide which hairstyle he wanted for his roster photo, so he decided to go with both! We think it was a great decision.

#12 Joseph Capra

Joseph Capra

It was never a phase for Joseph. He always has been (and always will be) an emo kid. As Secondhand Serenade once said, “bEcAuSe ToNiGhT wIlL bE tHe NiGhT tHaT i WiLl FaLl FoR yOu.” Rawr xD
