In the Dan Le Batard debacle of an interview Manny said that they were gonna bring in a new chain again for next year. What are everyone's best guesses or wishes for what the chain will look like next year?

I'm all in on the 305 with the U logo that would be savagery

How about a TD chain for the offense? Let’s get a little excitement going on that side of the ball this year.
 
Hurricane warning flags would be dope and IMO the best option.

Could also just be "305." Or maybe our helmet as the pendant.

I don't really have any issue adding something for touchdowns, but it shouldn't be another chain. Do something else.

So what happens when someone catches a TD pass? Will the qb or receiver wear the chain?

I’d say the receiver. Currently, if someone causes a fumble and another player scoops it up, the player that made the recovery wears it. The QB gets enough of the glory and the spotlight when things go well. Maybe giving the receivers something to get them juiced will decrease the number of dropped passes that seem to have plagued this program for years now.

Oh, and get rid of the **** helmet stickers. That’s pee wee, optimist league football stuff. The tomahawk stickers on the FSU helmets makes them look like Pop Warner players. Why copy their lame tradition?

Nah bruh. Helmet stickers keep them going hard (well, the ones that get them). They compare them at the end of the season. It's another form of friendly competition...

We won 5 national championships without giving out helmet stickers. I doubt that players like Irvin and Blades and Toretta and Kosar and Reed and Portis and on and on...felt left out when they saw all those tomahawk stickers on the back of the Seminoles’ helmets. That’s someone else’s tradition that we don’t need to copy. Now we have the turnover chain, which we created, which also has created a lot of national buzz for the last two seasons.

Remember how much **** the fans gave Shannon when he took the players’ names off the back of the jerseys? People compared it to Penn State, and that we didn’t need to copy or look like another program. How about the fact that everyone has stolen the smoke and the four fingers from us? (I know, it was an idea that Schnellenberger got from coaching at Alabama, but we made it a real thing).

We don’t need to look like the Seminoles. If Richt brought it to UGA and then to UM, he probably got the idea from his time at FSU. I like our traditions, old and new, to be ours. Let other teams hand out helmet stickers. We can hand out bling...today it’s a turnover chain, hopefully tomorrow it’s Natty Ring #6.
