Husker from Kansas Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 eh, that is ok, i wish they would have done something different, I'm a fan of the matte finish, but this might look good when the players are wearing them out on the field, i guess we'll have to wait and see Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 What a bunch of crap I can see orange peel in that paint job, send those back or I'm never going to another husker game again!!! just in case... Quote Link to comment
MattDoza Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Here's a big pic of the helmet. Clean up after yourself: Where'd you find this? Doesn't look legit. That's looks like a youth facemask, and the reflection in the helmet looks like someone's porch. Also, the sticker over the helmet brand logo look pretty shoddy. Quote Link to comment

I don't rightly remember, which is sad because I just posted this yesterday. Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Think I may have an idea. Per Shatel's column. • Hate to admit it, but the black Nebraska helmets are growing on me. I saw them up close on Monday at Huskers Authentic (other Husker stores carry them also). Store manager Gregg Lingenfelder said he's sold more than 150 of the mini helmets in just over a week and is already ordering 500 more. I can see why. The black helmet would look pretty slick on a desk or shelf. We'll see how they look on a football field next month, but I am prepared to eat my words. Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 The helmet may not be the actual one, but for all intents and purposes, it's very similar to what we'll see. Quote Link to comment
broganreynik Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Before I get chastised for this post, let me preface it by saying I do not want the team to do this. Does anyone think that the team might wear the helmets for other games after the Wisky game? Similar to how Michigan wore the helmets with numbers the rest of the season last year.

ZRod Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I would say it's possible, doesn't the unity council make decisions about team attire or am I just making that up? Quote Link to comment
Lyons in the Sea of Red. Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I dont think they leave that up to the unity council. I'm pretty sure that's an authority above them. Quote Link to comment

This wouldn't surprise me in the least. Just don't know how that would look with the normal team uni's Quote Link to comment
ZRod Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I dont think they leave that up to the unity council. I'm pretty sure that's an authority above them. The final say yeah, but I always thought that they had some say in what the players were allowed to wear. Quote Link to comment

It's possible, but highly unlikely. The whole uniform could possibly make an appearance in a conference championship game, if we get there, or a bowl game. Outside of that, they'll be collecting a lot of dust. Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I can't even imagine the fan meltdown if it got out they were going to change the helmet for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment
dutch91701 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I can't even imagine the fan meltdown if it got out they were going to change the helmet for the rest of the season. I'd kick a baby. Black helmets are bad. See Stanford. 1 Quote Link to comment
