Colors are reversed. What the heck, if a new helmet can help with our new coaching staff then I'm ALL for any and all changes at this point.

GO COACH RIZZI!

Probably not since the uniforms we have know are only a few years old. But if Rizzi wants an entire overhaul then I'm all for it.

They have those damned German uniforms.


But at least Adidas is a respectable manufacturer.



I'd like to see Nike or UA though. US companies.

Time to change your avatar Cobbler.xthumbsupx

Reversing the colors looks better imo.

They changed it in order to hypnotize the opposition. I almost got sick just looking at it. Shenanigans!

Nike is barely a US company. Bought any merchandise with "Made in USA" from them lately?

Their headquarters are in the US.

All the profit that Nike makes goes to the US economy.


The factories in China only get enough money to pay the workers and maintenance.



Hence, it's a full US company.


Made in America just means that you have to pay more for it because our regulations are so high. It doesn't mean it's higher quality necessarily (though sometimes it does).

I think the blue sheet in the background did that to mess with the keys. I think on the field they will look awesome. Now Brown needs to go back to white helmet and bryant needs to add a logo :D

looking at it closer, it looks like the facemask is now black and no longer the dark blue.

I looked at it for a couple minutes, and then that swirl pattern was hovering in photonegative before my eyes for an hour.

Helmet is fine, but having the same colors of Columbia does not inspire a winning tradition. However having three former Red Raider coaches/player does(Rizzi,Trianor and Lukebu):)

I'm one of the few that never minded the URI unis. They take a lot of criticism for them, but I think they're fine. xthumbsupx

I was thinking the exact same thing!

On a serious note, I always thought URI's unis should be just like North Carolina's. The baby blue with white look. UNC has white facemasks that I like a lot. URI keeps the ram horn with the rest of the uniform.

NU had white facemasks during the mid through late '90's.
