I just think it was because the insect is a yellow jacket and not that they were planning on calling themselves after the color of the nickname. Back then, no one ever heard of someone calling themselves "Blue Jacket", "Orange Jacket" or anything other than just the name of the nickname such as the insect Yellow Jacket. I'm not fond of it, but it is what it is... been that way as long as I can remember.

I've never understood Williamsburg.

Change it to the Orange Jackets. Or just 'jackets'. Imagine Duke being Red and white, yet being the Blue Devils. Or Corbin being green while still being called the RedHounds.

If an actual color is in your nickname, it should be in your colors.
