Maroon-Orange Matte makes me feel like Valentine's Day evening.
Buzzketball Sweater makes me feel like New Year's morning.
Can we just vote to not use Foghorn Leghorn on anything?
I'm not advocating for a mascot change, btw. I think the current mascot costume is the best of the lot. But we could go for the old abstract fighting gobbler and use the current mascot. That cartoon they keep slapping on things is terrible.
Its officially the offseason
Agree. I don't mind all these VOTE FOR POLARIZING VIRGINIA TECH THING X threads, but there it would be nice to discuss other relevant offseason topics with more substance (Hokie hoops, ACC-a-doins', college football at-large, breakdowns of last season, etc...). Also, would it be possible to contain rounds 1...N of voting in a single thread.
I thought Pi's VT recruiting footprint was on point: http://www.thekeyplay.com/content/2017/february/5/analysis-vt-recruiting... and to see work like that from others in the community.
Some of us aren't smart enough

just FYI Joe, I tried to post a bracket with desserts to settle the question once and for all, but Google has some sort of built in quality control. It kept declaring pie the winner whenever I tried to finalize the bracket...
I'm glad we made that Tribute to Black Beamer helmet. He should never be forgotten
That's hilarious, had to scroll back up to see what on earth you were talking about.
Whoa black Beamer, bambalam, whoaaaaa black Beamer
Leg for the obscure 70's rock reference.
obscure?
man there were some categories where I just flat out didn't like ANY of the options. Kinda like this past election. TIC
Yeah those helmets are the best
(THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO GO UNDER THE JUST WIN HELMET DISCUSSION FAIL ON MY PART)
The Lunch Pail helmets are awesome! Does anyone know if there are any plans to use them?
It was just a mockup Clark Ruhland (@Hokie20) did for fun, but it was received VERY well by fans.
For starters, Bud himself retweeted the hell out of it earlier this week
and to take a step further Clark even said they wouldn't be decals; hand painted except for handle decal on top, and usual ACC, State, and Stars/Stripes decals. However, it would be very difficult to paint the Speedflex helmets in some of those spots.
Ugh all of the Hokie Bird helmets....
I couldn't bring myself to vote for any of them.
But the Gobbler ones though!!!!!!
Group of Death. The Gobbler section is straight fire.
I think those Belk Bowl helmets are my favorite helmets all time. Those were dope. I also think the Classic Maroons are pretty sexy as well, I'd like to see those minus the VT logo, so just the stripe down the middle. That would be classy.
And BOY I SAY BOY...get rid of the Foghorn helmets...immediately if not sooner.
That's a nice lookin helm.... hey wait a minute...
I vote we never use orange lids again
