Always have thought the 1994 look was underappreciated.  Also, one for one on conference championships in that helmet.

Also like the 2020 white helmet with the green flying worms.  

Good find.

There always seems to be debate around how who used the "Wing" first, UNT or Oregon. Based on this history - UNT in 2016 - Oregon in 2017

**ACTUAL OREGON WAS 2011 ** I WAS WRONG

And the White with Green feathers
 

UNT - 2017     Oregon - 2021

I was OK with the script in 2003-2004. The biggest flub was 96-97 when there was blue trim added

Not so fast, my friend.

I stand corrected

I have to give the first use of wings on the helmets to the Oregon Ducks.  I looked it up too.

These are not the same, however. Oregon has been doing the feather type helmets for a while longer than UNT, at least since Mariota’s Heisman season.

BUT! This is not the same, ours is SOW’s head cut off and the wings on the helmet. Oregon is just feathers, not their logo.

It was probably an idea, but not the same

I hope we never get rid of the Texas outline. Is so clean.

Helmet stickers anyone?

It's still a ripoff of their idea.   They look too similar...and not a good look anyway, but the players seem to like it.   What do they know?, lol.

New conference = new helmet? Put the letterman’s logo on the helmet.

If we are going to incorporate an interlocking logo, this is the way to go.
