Said in another thread - honeycomb has a place at Tech. But it needs to be subtle. Unis were terrible. Helmets weren’t as bad but weren’t good. Needs to be used in a similar way to the Yellow Jacket pattern on the numbers of our current jerseys. Don’t notice it from the TV/stands buts it’s a cool background touch when you get up close.

I liked the helmets, but prefer the solid white from last year. The honeycomb unis were a travesty.

The helmet honeycomb wasn't really that visible from the stands.

Dead as in “not coming back” or “dead on” as in “on point”

Because I hope they went to the trash bin with the Russell stuff.
He was on 3 man front (Football Podcast) and said they are dead, meaning never to be seen again.
He also said that we would wear 6 different jersey this year, but would stick to the Gold (helmet), White (top), Gold(pants) combination most of the time.

My guess is:

White/Blue numbers
White/Gold numbers
Gold/White numbers
Gold/Blue numbers
Blue/Gold numbers
Blue/White numbers

One of those may be a throwback style jersey.

The chicken wire (the helmets and/or the uniform abomination) were horrid. It looked like it was drawn up in MS Paint by Russell’s lowest level designers over a long weekend coke binge.

I can’t believe Tech ever sullied it’s image by allowing that to see the light of day.
I'm not sure whether Dan Radakovich #%&@ed us over more by telling CPJ about the NCAA investigation and getting us sanctioned before leaving for Clemson, or by renewing the Russell deal for 5 years just before leaving for Clemson. It's almost like he knew he would be leaving for Clemson.

But in the immortal words of Billy Crystal portraying Fernando Lamas, "It is better to look good than to feel good."
As a famous philosopher once said, "If you look good, you feel good. If you feel good, you play good. If you play good, they pay good."
