[QUOTE="DaDodd, post: 887931, member: 4163"] Because what then would set us apart from any other team with our same color scheme? Do we want to look like Notre Dame, Navy, Akron, FIU. With us using black now, Wake Forest, Vanderbilt, Purdue, Colorado, Army, UCF. Only two teams in college football predominantly wear white at home. Georgia Tech and LSU. Why change that? We need Tech to have an identity so that when they come out of that tunnel, outsiders and people across the county can immediate tell that that is Georgia Tech. During the CPJ years we were known as "that option team". That was our identity. Well that's gone and we need something special again to set us apart. (Playing better and winning games is a must as well to set us apart.) Having a different uniform combo each week doesn't do that. I think just because we had certain combos in the past doesn't me we should use all of them on a constant basis. We had a constant brand until we followed the multi-combo trend of the early 2010s and the only brand left was white at home. I'm ok with GWW or WWG or even WGW on rare occasions. Maybe use one of those combos for one away game a year. But I agree we need to get aback to White and Gold. I say "rare occasions" because it should be something special when we use them. If we change every week then there's nothing special attached to them. We just need constancy to gain that identity. Alternates every once in a white but GWG needs to used at least 7-8 games a year. That leaves 4-5 games for GBW, GGW, WWW, and some other away combos or WGW. I understand that you may think that is boring and some others may think that as well. But I think the majority of the fans want to see more White and Gold. White coming before Gold. But I understand that some fans want some verity. That's why I threw in GBW and GGW and WWW. I'm just trying to simply things. 1. To solidify a brand and identity. 2. To emphasize our two main colors White and Gold. 3. To eliminate weekly uniform reveals that can be a distraction to the players. 4. To inform the fans what to expect before the season. I agree that we should NEVER wear blue pants. NEVER. [/QUOTE]
