Gold Update

The GT is a great logo for the team. I hope we keep buzz the mascot though. There's not a better mascot in sports, and I'll fight you.
 
Thread hijack.... how great would this look on an alternate helmet...

This is a pretty interesting question. At one point in the late 90s we had a giant inflatable buzz in the South End Zone that was yellow and black like the cheerleader mascot Buzz. A UGA fan vandalized the inflatable Buzz and it was replaced by a gold metallic Buzz.

There are two options I think:

1) change the yellow in Buzz to the new gold. Including updating the cheerleader mascot.

2) keep Yellow Jacket colors for Buzz. Give him a new sweater that is the new gold with a white GT. Or a white sweater with the new gold GT. Think about the Florida Gator mascot. Their mascot is green but green is not one of their colors.

I like option 2 of those. I'm very interested in seeing what they choose to do.

Is it too weird to make the lines in the wings spell out yellow jackets? Plenty of logos where the images spell words. You'd have a retro logo, a big T, and the words Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets spelled out.
 
I was at the Jax Bowl game outside stadium talking to some Ky folks.As we looked around at Tech fans even Ky fans remarked on all the different shades of gold we had.It was STUNNING.(and funny)
 
Oh and one more thing....what's the deal with suspenders hanging by the goal post? Is this a new/trendy thing or what?

Even more stunning was the consistent shade of blue jackets and sweatshirts Tech fans wore. Really made the stadium look packed with Kentucky fans.

I agree, but I bet a helmet, shirt, jersey, pants, socks, blanket, hats, banners, balloons, book covers, seat covers, pencils, pens, coats, sweatshirts, ties can not all be made to match the R/R and each other.

Consistent Gold in fabric would be easy. If we want a Gold helmet to match it would probably need to be Flat paint or else go to White helmet.

Getting rid of the gold helmet is blastphemous.
 
All you have to do is look at 2006. Jesus it isn't that difficult. those were easily the nicest uniforms we ever wore

Then, perhaps like I said, flat paint. That is if matching a Gold color is an issue.

But why would it be “blasTphemous”?

Dodds last teams wore White hats, if that indeed is the reason.
