cheekygeek Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I'd like to propose just one modification to this: Out of State players put their Area Codes, but In-State players put their County Designation. If we need to put a zero or two in front of it, that's OK, we would know that Double-O One is from Douglas, for example. Double-O Seven would be Madison County, NE. 1 Quote Link to comment

307husker Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) I guess this is a thing we do now. Saw a picture of an area code on the front "label" of the helmet, above the facemask, similar to how UCF did it last year. Edited August 29, 2018 by Mavric Merged threads Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 29, 2018 Author Share Posted August 29, 2018 I think this idea is pretty cool but the execution seems to be lacking. 1 Quote Link to comment

I think it’s cool. Better than what I imagined which was a helmet sticker. I like it better than UCF’s. 1 Quote Link to comment

I think the numbers look like some kids toys that they glued on the front. Can't wait for people to laugh when they're breaking off. Needs to at least be a different font. I think I would have liked a flat sticker better with the numbers in something more like the Block N or at least with a black outline or something. 4 Quote Link to comment
brophog Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 They look pretty on a shelf, but I agree, those are going to take some abuse. Quote Link to comment
bugeater17 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Yeah - not a huge fan of the location. I was imagining a sticker/decal on the back of the helmet. Quote Link to comment
Lonestar_Husker Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I like the look. It might give Husker players a very slight to miniscule advantage as the opposing players get distracted trying to figure out where the area codes are. Might give a split second longer if the opposing player is from the same area code as his assignment. "Hey, I'm from 817, too! I wonder which high schoo..."(ball snaps, receiver blows by his distracted cornerback, TD ensues.) Yes, I know I'm reaching. I'm just trying to rationalize a way to get to 9 wins. 2 Quote Link to comment

The helmets have had those rubber toy looking things for “Huskers” for a couple years now; I don’t recall ever seeing any letters missing. So, they should be pretty alright as far as adhesiveness goes. It still looks goofy. Quote Link to comment

I think the location is fine. That's where every team has them of the team's that I've seen. But this is the first one I remember that wasn't basically a sticker. Quote Link to comment
