I guess like most of us I am biased toward uniforms similar to what I remember from my youth. In my mind, Tech will always wear the uniforms they wore in the late '70s: gold pants and helmets with white jerseys, whether home or away.
I did not like the black jerseys that the team wore occasionally during the Bill Curry years. I did not like the gold jerseys and white pants Tech was wearing when it won its last national championship.
I like that the current uniforms feature white jerseys at home. I'm not thrilled with the color (it looks like vegas gold, not old gold), but at least it's not a metallic gold.
A big improvement this year is that the weird pointed stripes from 2008 are gone. I hope, but I am not optimistic, that the white road pants are gone.
I wouldn't mind seeing a navy jersey for specially occasions, maybe once a year, but I'll settle for white jerseys home and away.
As long as Tech gets the uniforms as part of a marketing deal we'll be stuck with whatever they give us, and I can live with that (as long as they don't go Oregon on us).
