Lamar's "New" Football Helemt

[Hitch]

You guys are ridiculous!

The glass is either half full or half empty.

You can't just be excited that LU has football again, but you want to "nic-pic" what the helmet looks like.

A couple more black helmets:

OK, of all the ones presented so far, the second of these two is my absolute favortie!  It's one-of-a-kind and it looks GREAT!!

I'm an old school kinda guy, but I like the one that they used most recently best:

I do like white helmets, though.

I like both of the black helmets....If you talk to the "old" timers, navy was once one of the Lamar school colors. A Navy helmet with either a redbird or red LU might look good.

Would some of the "Old timers" please say what year(s) they remember Navy being in the colors of the Lamar football uniforms?  I'm and old timer dating back to 1955 and I don't remember Navy EVER being in the football color scheme.  But then, ther's a lot of things I don't remember !!! ;D

personally i like the new white helmet.  maybe if they added a red stripe down the middle of the helmet it would look even better

Many have stated they are worried about the scaring that happens to helmets.

Many colleges and some HS that can afford it have practice helmets.

I know when Rutgers played Kansas State in the Texas Bowl a couple of years back, both schools had practice helmets and then broke out the game helmets.

A good equipment manager and student assistants will keep helmets clean up.  It is not that hard of a job to keep a helmet clean.

The white helmet is pretty sharp.

In the great landscape of college football, to me, Texas Tech has the best uniforms.  I didn't graduate from a high school with those colors nor am I a big Texas Tech fan but out of all the color schemes I do think red, black and as little white as possible is the best combination that you can get.  I am excited about the return of football too but we (Lamar) might as well look top notch while doing it.
