OT: HornSports OFFICIAL Supercalafragalistic Team Uniform Thread

Supersized decals have trickled down to the high schools.  Here's Magnolia HS's new Bulldog logo.

NOOOOOOOOOO

NOOOOOOOOOO

YES!!!

That's a bit much. If they were to go the Chrome route, I'd rather it be the route Boise State took with the Orange Chrome (Burnt for Texas) with a Chrome Longhorn. But honestly, I don't want to see Texas jump on any trends. I'm good with new uniforms but keep them simple and traditional.

NOOOOOOOOOO

At least the players could use this helmet as a mirror to fix their hair or to check if anything is in their teeth after eating.  DKR just threw up looking at this offering.

Now this helmet reminds me of the old Copper Tank bar off of 6th street that opened while I was on the 40 acres. Anyone with me? Dollar pints on wed? Maybe we can make some home brew in this copper helmet.

More palatable than the straight chrome version, but still too gaudy for my tastes.  Yes, I know it's not intended for middle-aged guys.

If we do a burnt orange lid, I want it to resemble the white helmet as much as possible.  Pearl finish?  Matte would be okay, too.

NOOOOOOOOOO

Agreed...truly awful

Word is, Iowa State, is changing their red helmets' finish - going to matte instead of pearl.  Let's compare.

I'm sorry, red just doesn't look good in a matte finish.  Cyclones will be eraser heads this year!

I don't mind the matte, much better than the shiny versions that cause migraine headaches and loss of vision. I guess those helmets could temporarily blind a DB allowing a receiver to stroll to the end zone easier! Agree on the red, the gray matte helmets I have seen look much better.

When shown this pic Charles Omenihu tweeted he preferred the current helmet but would like to see new jerseys. I think its inevitable Texas does a special uniform once or twice a year. Its like wearing a suit when you were a kid. You knew it was a special day and you felt special. Im a 50 yr old man and I admit I like seeing the jerseys the schools break out week to week. I know kids have to. No need to go overboard

though when you already have top 5 uniform

Ugh...new tablet...trying to work out the kinks. Im referencing the chrome LH helmet above in my post.

 

[BevoBlake]

I have to agree with J.B. here. Matte helmets tend to look pretty nice but they just don't fit well with that color scheme. It will be interesting to see how the dome looks when it's atop a jersey. I expect the color difference to stick out like a aggie sore thumb then.

I like the helmet!  Cool, chrome red outline of mascot.

Yeah, I like that helmet too.  

I absolutely hate the adidas stretch fabric jerseys.  That pattern is just ugly.  Looks like stretch marks or a tire tread.

"Eye of the Tiger" helmets for Stillman College

 

[BevoBlake]

I'm not sure how I feel about that one. There is so much going on with the Tiger Eye logo that the Matte Black helmet just makes it look like an unfinished project. As much as I like Matte Helmet finishes, I think this one would have been better served with a pearlescent finish.
