HOD Bowl Shirts are out at Academy

[faninmonroe]

I like the shirts......

[techman05]

My message will remain consistent as it has in many other threads lately.....

Just be happy we have shirts and don't have to attend/watch the game naked.

Why would anybody want to wear a WHITE t-shirt that says "Bowl Bound: Dallas is Bulldog Country?" Those t-shirts are awful. How much money did we waste on these t-shirts? They should just ship them straight to Africa.

As has been adequately mentioned, from the design to the lack of bowl details, this tee is struggling. I believe Tech is known to have a fairly strong graphic art dept. Wonder why we can't make better use of those resources from time to time. But, I can always use a new shirt. #Latechsleepwear

I ordered these two online and got free shipping on both.

I have a pic of the academy one. Someone texted it to me. my response was "do they have it in blue?" they don't. And it has our old helmet.

Went to the bookstore about an hour ago, they have this shirt for sale:

So much for brand identity.

There was no size bigger than a Large. They couldn't tell me if they have bigger or will be getting bigger or not.

They also have a handful of the hats with the patriotic state-T everyone wanted.

You can order sizes up to 2XL here and use the code BNCFREESHIP for free shipping

Geez, what a bunch of whiners.

Academy gets personalized (licensed) stuff about 10 days -- LESS THAN 10 DAYS -- after the HOD Bowl matchup is announced and Bookstore gets stuff soon thereafter . . . and the whining begins.

HELL, less than 5 years ago we couldn't get Academy to give Tech the time of day for normal GameDay gear, much less an impromptu bowl event. (Hats off to Academy using the White-T helmet sticker.)

I got plenty of blue shirts to wear if that's the color what I wanna wear. But really the color doesn't matter cuz I'll probably be wearing my white NIKE Tech cover of warmth.

Hmmm, all have flaws but I like the blue one and the gray one the best. At least those have the official bowl logo.

Ordering both today! NICE!

If I owned a Zaxby's in one of the college towns that was about to play in MY bowl game...

With the red and black, looks like a ULL shirt. The Font used for "Louisiana Tech" is really bad.

Yep. It screams LaLaff. Also, as pointed out, they use the helmet graphic from 3 years ago.

Bowl games have stupid names these days. Why not call it the "Yellow Rose Bowl" as in "yellow rose of Texas." Or, the Bluebonnet Bowl, which I think is the state flower of Texas, Oh wait! that was done.

"Heart of Dallas" bowl? Just calling it the "The Dallas Bowl" would be better.

I was told more sizes will be available Wednesday

We bitch because we care. We're tired of being offered extremely sub-par products. Is it too much to ask for something nice once in a while?
