That white helmet with the Lock on the side would look real clean.

Are we looking at a new style helmet or a finished product? I like the style but I'd like to see something really bold. The bulldog logo or something bolder.

Hmmm....Interesting. Could use both, either a blue or white (or Gold helmet) depending on the uniform attire for that week.

Perhaps it is the prototype for a new helmet, and if chosen will be painted.

You can close this thread....Not a new helmet design just a prototype

Facemask looks weird. Is that supposed to help prevent concussions?

Who is in charge of picking these new uniform/helmet combinations?

Why change something that isn’t broken...we got one of the best looks in all of HBCU sports. Great colors, clean easily recognizable logos...what is to be gained here? Are they doing this just because they can...or is there a reason. Let BCU be the Oregon or the MEAC, we should try to be the Alabama. New helmet/uniform combinations won’t add a thing to our win column.

It's all about recruiting! You wear what the kids like not what the fans prefer. Kids these days are into those things and believe it or not it does have an effect on your program/recruiting. Why do you think the kids like putting on the jerseys and gloves for photoshoots on their visits to different campuses. Ask Carolina if wearing the Jordan brand has helped their football program land recruits. The difference in quality between the Russell Gear that we had vs the Nike gear isn't even close.
Does anyone remember 2015 when nccu came out of the locker room after warm ups in brand metallic silver helmets..? I recall hearing members of our team talking about how nice they were before and after the game... This is also the same year we showed up to the Celebration bowl with players having raggedy paint on our helmets ( some hade matte blue look, others had shiny blue with gold specs)
My point is we need to do better if we want to continue to attract todays student athletes. Look Good Play Good! I want the guys to be comfortable and confident in what the compete in.

Maybe I’m just old school Aggie5, but from what I’ve seen teams that consistently recruit well have same things in common...and it’s not their helmet/uniform combos. Teams that have great facilities, good coaching, admin support, and winning records...tend to recruit well. I hate to hear our guys had lack luster uniforms or helmets in 2015...but that didn’t stop us from winning a share of the MEAC title and the celebration bowl. Carolina may look good, but they also get their asses kicked year end and year out by other FBS programs...Jordan brand hasn’t helped that a bit when it comes to that. Looking good is important, but if you need to look good in order to play well then, well imma just leave that one alone.
