New Helmets Unveiled‼️

[NTSU52]

Throwing it back to the Dickey Days with these. Never thought we would wear the cursive script again, but I’m not mad at it.

Better wear the whole uniform if you’re bringing back the helmet. 

[Rudy]

Can we play like back then too?

 

Although, it will be a non-conference game, so it may not be a good idea....

[Stix]

For which game?

Wyoming Sept 21st.

[Caw Caw]

honestly, i really like it.

[Coffee and TV]

Bleh. Never liked this era. As awful as the coaching was, we looked better once D*dge came to town. 

[Marty]

Cool!

I believe the team will be wearing generic black practice jerseys and pants to go with the helmets.

this would make my year

Note: As soon as we dropped that text from the helmets - we started losing.  Dickey's infamous "all black practice" look was with the current text North Texas uses.

 

 

 

Dickey might still be here is we hadn't changed the text!

Yeah I hated watching Cobbs, Jamario, back to back rushing champs, Quinn, Booger, Spencer, Awasom, Buckles, top 10 defense, hardly ever losing a conference game, that New Orleans Bowl win, blowing out Baylor at home, the NMSU game at Fouts, miracle in the desert, etc. too.....

That helmet brings back horrible memories

[greenjoe]

It’s a joke.  Calm down

IDK if you're confused or just trying to be cute but I can separate the play from the aesthetics of what they played in. Alabama has a million titles but their look is boring and generic.

But I thought you had to change up constantly and use multiple color schemes to get players and keep them happy (sarcasm is 100% intended).

Unless you're so boring/generic it kinda rules.  Penn State is so 1940s basic throwback, I love it.

I sincerely hope this is true

I actually own one of those hunter green 2004 helmets. 

[Glory to the Green]

They look great!  I was 2001-2005, so this is my era. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

From 2001 - 2004 UNT was 4-20 in non-conference games. In those 24 games, UNT lost by an average score of 27.9 to 14.3. 

P4 record: 1-10 

G5 record: 2-10 

FCS record: 1-0

Needless to say, there are plenty of bad memories....

 

[SilverEagle]

I see why they are doing it. But I don't like those helmets.

My thoughts exactly.  I think it’s probably a good way to honor guys who played in those helmets.  But…I don’t care for them.

[Moobs]

I can’t believe that my time in college is now considered a “throwback.”  That’s not possible. I’m not that old. 😂
 

Weirdly… I kinda like it. However, I hope it only comes out for this game and then goes away for a very long time again.
