  if (!array_key_exists('fieldXX', $user)) {$user = fetch_userinfo($user['userid']);}
  $my_special_color = $user['fieldXX'];
  $user['musername'] = '<span style="color:'.$my_special_color.'">'.$user['username'].'</span>';
} 


If anyone happens to use this thread as a reference for anything, take note that I made a mistake here. Calling fetch_userinfo() inside of the fetch_musername hook is not a good idea. Instead, it should be written like this:

PHP Code:

if (is_member_of($user, $special_group))
{
  if (!array_key_exists('fieldXX', $user))
  {
    global $vbulletin;
    $tempuser = $vbulletin->db->query_first(sprintf("SELECT fieldXX FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."userfield WHERE userid=%d",$user['userid']));
    $user['fieldXX'] = $tempuser['fieldXX'];
  }
  $my_special_color = $user['fieldXX'];
  $user['musername'] = '<span style="color:'.$my_special_color.'">'.$user['username'].'</span>';
}
