2019 GT Official Color Debate (formerly Adidas Swag Watch 2019 **

[chris975d]

Based on this explanation, it would appear that the GTAA is just as responsible for all of the blue as Adidas.

That is just my experience with co-branding, as an unrelated business using the schools' logos for my own business. The apparel companies may very well have a different licensing agreement, where they are issued a blanket license and can use how they wish, I'm not sure. It does seem unlikely that that would be the case though.

Shocking that all the experts on this board just corrected my speculation when I might have been correct.

You doing alright @Supersizethatorder-mutt ? You definitely saw the thread - left multiple comments on it:

That explains a lot..

Of course they are. They are also responsible for all the ESPN graphics being the wrong colors. That's why TStan deflecting to retailers confuses me so much. We absolutely have control of this, and GTAA has made conscious decisions to emphasize blue over gold, contradicting all the branding work that was done in 2018.

Tstan is the one that needs to get on board

Yeah, I went back and checked and saw that I had made posts. Maybe I even filled out the survey. I don't remember now.

I remember the initial rebranding video having a newspaper clipping stating that blue was one of the three original colors from 100ish years ago.

Where is the contradiction?

A friend forwarded me this Instagram photo. Sure glad to see that the gold jerseys here have dark numbers with white outlines on them ----

Navy is an official secondary color. White and gold are official primary colors. Emphasizing your secondary over what should be your primaries is the contradiction and completely muddles the branding. This was established in the 2018 roll out when Adidas came on board. Additionally, our logo can only be white or gold. No more blue logos (except on our gold uni pants apparently lol).

Alright so other than not having Comcast carrying the ACCN, will do You Tube TV if needed, I am ready for the season. Already hung my GT Flag out. Ordered the new jersey from the bookstore, it is not up on the web site but they let me order on the phone. Decided on a camo GT hat with the new Gold GT. I am a hunter so that works. I ordered that Grey jersey. And I have my plane tickets for the Pitt Game. Of course I will be there for UGA. Season Tickets sent to my tailgate crew and the parking pass. I am ready and I think we win 9 games this year so there.

Hoodies at Kohl’s I just got the grey yesterday. Good quality and fit. Ordered Navy today

Exactly

Hate to bring the color scheme back into this, but why the hell is the presser background grey instead of gold?

I’m a little tongue-in-cheek when I say this, but also a little serious: get a life, man.

Probably because if you make it the same color as that clothes that the coaches wear, it blends together and makes it harder to get the cameras to focus correctly. Granted they aren't wearing gold today, but same goes with blue or white.

I used to ask this same question but someone told me it actually is gold but the lighting does something to it though. Maybe...beats me
