QB battle

[GoGATech]

We finally start branding well and we limit the access to merchandise. Even when we are good at marketing we are bad at marketing.

Right. They're selling 404 hats at $200 a pop. Why not sell 2,000 hats at $50 each? Make more money, make more fans happy. The folks that will drop $200 for a hat are probably already donating a hefty amount to the program I'm sure.

And won’t wear the hat.

And won’t wear the hat.

Or if they do, it'll be like some of the ones that paid $404 for the other hat (and backpack or whatever it came with) and only wear it just to let others know they paid that much for it.

I just convinced my Aggie wife to not donate to TAMU this year because that program is one of the richest in the nation with 1M+ insane alumni who would give their last dollar to the football team and doesnt need our petty $. Instead, we should give her share to my beloved Jackets who have a much smaller alumni base and even smaller when you consider the fraction who actually care about football. Maybe I will get me a 404 hat? I'd rather have that ATL shirt though.

If Sims starts, I have hopes we will make the playoffs within the next 4 seasons

But if not, well then forget it.

Mesh back hats are so 1980. Wait for the full cotton fitted version.

Yeah, sell a few for a lot of money instead of selling more at leas money.

Yep. I will have hopes for Georgia State otherwise

I don't even wear hats, but I'd like one. I have luscious hair

 

[OptionsJacket]

Maybe we made more than 404 and are just marketing the scarcity of these hats.

This is the thing. We need people wearing our stuff. Especially casual fans. We need walking billboards.

 

[Architorture23]

It's one thing to make limited edition stuff at a high price point if your fanbase, as a whole, is happy and well-outfitted. Doesn't make as much sense when people have been starving for decent gear for 30 years.

I just realized that "QB battle" is code for "let's discuss hats."

Full cotton fitted hats are so 90s. Mesh back trucker hats are what's back in.

 

[CarsonNewmanJacket]

To me sounds like we are gonna try a different QB each set of downs, like last year. Can’t wait.

JacketsOnline - QBs again the center of attention in GT Camp

College football fans love a good quarterback battle and Georgia Tech has a stacked deck of young signal callers on the

georgiatech.rivals.com

Definitely how it’s going to start out. I just feel like they gotta list a starter within three weeks.

You're a hatist

Love the deep fit of these types of hats. Travis Matthew puts out really good looking ones.

Well this could be the first discussion topic we've ever not argued about on this board? I didnt even read one statement about anybody's mom wearing a hat.

Your mom has a mesh back.

Good news. It looks like they've found a starter, and don't plan on rotating unless necessary:

Per ESPN

Even better news is that they won't say who won the starting job so we can still speculate and bicker mindlessly for a few more days!
