That looks awesome. I like the blue helmets, but I don't really care for the numbers on one side, and I also think the Cat head is a bit too large. This helmet looks very sharp!!

I don't like all the fancy uniform combinations. I swear it takes away the players focus off the game and onto the uniforms. Wear the traditional blue and gold (gold helmet/blue M) as much as possible please :)

Sadly I think different uniform combinations has become part of the game and enticing to recruits. I just like schools that stick with tradition but that may be a thing of the past.


P.S - No Debbie Downer pics after this post :lol:

Ok, I won't do the Debie Downer thing - but I strongly disagree. I don't think it impacts the play on the field whatsoever - unless it makes them play slightly better due to whatever "excitement" they may get from sporting something new.


Great time to be a BOBCAT!

I actually agree with you to a point...although I loved the 1984 throwback unis and helmets. I generally favor sticking with the basic helmets and unis, but I'm afraid you're right. I think the horses are already out of the barn, and there's probably no going back now. However I don't believe that it has any impact whatsoever on how well we play.

How cool would it be to use Web Daves helmet design with the all white. Kind of one up the Griz. :thumbup: :yes: That would be sick!


Thank God there's Hockey this year .........

Well. ..I guess he needs to get busy and put a mock up of one on here for all to see. We have not seen the white helmet version yet. ..

Well...

I don't think Haslam is as arrogant as the guy that got fired.

But I think we're wearing the all white as noted earlier in THIS thread.

If the players can't play to the best of their abilities because of cool uni's then they need to recruit different guys or coach them differently. Oregon doesn't seem to have an issue with it.


Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.

I think wearing a different color helmet would be OK. It's the color of the jersey that has to be ok'd.

True. I assumed he meant the whole setup.

The throwbacks are not being sent out because there is a chance that they will be worn again one more time. This could be durning the season or a possible home playoff game. I thought they looked sweet, but I would like to see them get sent out now and we find something else to wear. I also think that Cat-griz is not the game to do throwbacks, but I would be okay with all white or some other little change for that game. I like the idea of changing it up though. The same thing gets old after awhile.


Punters are people too!!
