Did you catch the first helmet was North Texas Script and the helmets later had the wings?

That's why they said, "Psyche!" when they went to the winged helmet.  "Couldn't script it any better" was a complete trolljob.

Isn't that something off the back of a Panzer Tank?

 

The 1969 team would like a word with you...

Stay with the SOW.

But they will think we are the Australian AF, or some BS like that.

A cool photo op would have been the uniforms for the First Responders Bowl aboard the Mean Green Denton Fire Department fire engine.  A unique combination.

It's Oregon.....not us.

The whole season without a whole SOW LOGO on our helmets!??

It's North Texas...not Oregon. As much as we might hate it we should get away from logo's since we can't seem to settle on one and just put Mean Green or North Texas on the helmet.

RV would love that.  He didn't think anyone would know who we are if we didn't spell it out on the helmet.

The whole point of a Logo is Branding.   A school name is not a logo.   Wings are not a logo.  School initials can be a logo, but that is just lazy.

The game helmet is a zoomed-in SOW, not Oregon feathers.  It's literally our logo

I agree with you. The point I'm making is that we can't seem to decide on anything. I actually prefer the SOW and if they would shrink the image just a bit, it would fit nicely on the helmet. Why someone can't figure that out is beyond me.

Agree. 

We have the SOW on University buildings, all around campus, even in Frisco, but we can't put the whole thing on a helmet??

Oregon hasn't worn that combo in a while, at least not this year.

no, we can't.   because the full logo on the helmet looks like ass.   horrible fit.

 

put it on the state of texas, it fits.    eagle by itself, no.

 The fit is something the equipment guys can easily fix.

The issue is the helmet chin strap end piece can sometimes overlap the eagle head on the logo.

The fix is to adjust the position of the full SOW forward and above the chin strap (as shown)...

or tilt it slightly back away from the chin strap.

There is no way you can say the ‘new’ example you showed actually looks good.

I think it looks fine.  Most of the Eagle is visible, it looks like it is attacking something with talons out....lol.

To me it's more interesting than just bland feathers.  Other fans are laughing at us.

Nobody is laughing. It’s fine if you don’t like it, but don’t make things up to sell your point.

Don't think it's bland at all.  I like it.  Friends like it.  Oregon liked theirs.  It's fine.
