Just wanted to let everyone know that Pro Image Sports in the Golden Triangle Mall now carries the Black "Son of Worm" Schutt AiR XP Full-Size Replica Football Helmet. Note: These are the same black helmets that debuted last year during the nationally televised game against Louisiana Tech, and not the brand new black helmets that were recently pictured during the unveiling event for this year's uniforms.They feature a tapered black center strip with repeating miniature eagles in gray. The replica helmets can be had for $130, and there is also an authentic version that can be special ordered for around $300. Just FYI.

No, sorry. I didn't think to take a picture while I was in there. It's basically the full-size version of this helmet:

Uhh....

The helmets in the video WERE the La Tech game helmets. We aren't getting new black helmets. Just new green sparkle paint ones to match the new uniform color and a new SOW sticker with a black outline.

You sir, are 100% correct. I didn't see the familiar center stripe at first glance, and thought they might be sporting a slightly different black helmet this year. But, after watching the video even more closely, I completely concur. They are the exact same helmets. Thanks for pointing that out!

So, I know the HOD bowl was a while ago now, but does anyone know if the Athletic Department has any of those helmets for sale still? I always wanted one, but was a student at the time and couldn't afford it... If not, one of these might have to suffice...

It's amazing.   That's three guys who could likely play QB better than Mini Mac while wearing that helmet.

I've already posted this in another thread, but it's worth mentioning here also. The black/eagle full-size replica helmet is now available at the stadium store as well. I'm not 100% sure, but I think they're selling for around $120 there.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
