New Gray Uniforms with Children's Healthcare

[Supersizethatorder-mutt]

I have to admit that my objection was based on the color I saw in the initial video posted, and on my phone (computer in the shop), the uniforms looked Navy blue, and not even a good shade of Navy. If they are indeed gray, then I will reserve my opinion until I have seen them. I actually thought the gray uniforms pictured in a post several weeks ago looked pretty good. Ironically, although I saw gray then, others swore up an down they were blue.

Also, these look so much better than the smokey greys that Tennessee did a few years ago

I like them. Pretty much every team out there has done a grey alternate at some point besides us. This is us catching up with the times and achieving swag parity with other schools. That’s a big benefit of the adidas contract.

Special helmet incoming as well per the RW article. I'm guessing we will see metallic gold on there somewhere. Maybe grey helmet with metallic gold GT and facemask

I’m hoping it’s metallic gold to match the gold on jersey and shoes

I honestly think it's hilarious how did this whole rebranding thing to create an identity but just 1 year later we have no identity at all

I think it’s more that we are moving to an identity you don’t want us to be at.

You mean the identity of helping sick kids. You don't want that. Gotcha. Glad your life is perfect.

I guess few of you guys know that until freshmen became eligible, the "Baby Jackets" and the "Pups" played annually at Grant Field on Thanksgiving Day to benefit the Scottish Rite Children's Hospital, using the slogan "Strong legs run so that weak legs can walk." No gimmicks or special uniforms were needed. It was the white and gold against the red and black. Living in Augusta and going home for Thanksgiving, I never went, but from what I understand, the game was sold out each year.

And what identity would that be? Looking like our opponents?

Give me a break. He wanted us to wear grey so he tied it to a great cause, and you bought it hook line and sinker. The irony is great.

They're ugly af. Period. For the 2nd time, don't try to spin that with the cause itself. But keep tryin I guess.

Have you read the article?

Heisman instituted Gray unis. I’ll take it.

Heisman also had brown uniforms. Do you want those too?

To quote the ramblin wreck article:

"Onyx gray was chosen in part because of the color’s historical tie to legendary Georgia Tech football head coach John Heisman. Heisman was the first college football coach to enlist a practice squad to help the varsity team prepare for upcoming opponents, a unit which became known as the “Gray Devils.”"

I could see myself buying one of these jerseys, but I don't care for the #1 as being the only available number. They could go further and give us #19.

Dont forget to buy and wear one. I'm buying 3 for the kids I wrote about earlier and will give it to them so they can watch the game at home with their Super Capes on. I'll probably just wear a GT flag as a cape for the game.

And fyi, it's not just GT that is doing the capes, but ALL capes for Cape Day are gold. So maybe that will satisfy those pissing and moaning.

Forget those kids, the real victims are grown men who don’t get to watch 18 year olds playing a game wearing gold or white jerseys.

No. Attendance started to drop off in the latter years. Probably because there were no true freshmen teams anymore. I remember watching John Dewberry playing against Tech.

Love, Love, LOVE this. This is how we change the perception of the Institute. Great job GT, CGC and all the staff.

I'm sorry but if can't see how great this is, or if you are stuck on the color of the jersey, you are part of the reason why GT is where it is.

The 100% truth.

We should set up a fundraiser for them.

Congratulations, sir. You win the internets today.

They'd be all, "Ugh, you wanna wire me $10,000? As if. I wanted it in $100 bills, thanks. Mmkay?"

Wearing navy and gray more than we wear gold? You bet your *** I don't want that
