I like the white Vandy helmet. ... Is that the one they wore when Whit Taylor was QB back in the 1980s?

Yep, late 80s model. I'm a fan of the all black with gold accents helmet below -- think they should stick with it.

I realize it was a recruiting ploy and they were trying to jump start the program. But man, it might have done the opposite in this instance and drove kids away.

Probably not, since we're recruiting as well locally as we have in a while. Not to mention the Pride helmets are amazing.

These are the two helmets that need to have a live grenade placed inside of them. No other helmet is more repulsive than these.

They're the ones with the Calvert (Black and Gold Checkers) and Crossland (Red and White Cross) on each side. FWIW we also have similar designs called "White Ops" and "Black Ops"

I hope they destroyed every part of the UGA Pro Combat Uniforms. Absolutely atrocious.

Adidas is so terrible. Our contract with them is up in 2014, I'm praying to god we don't re-sign with them.

When I first joined 247 I was checking out all the different teams boards and when I was on the Michigan board I remember someone started a thread about boycotting Adidas because your basketball jerseys went from maize to "highlighter yellow" I think the term that this poster used.
But yeah I agree, leave the non traditional creative stuff to Nike until Adidas knows what the hell they're doing.
