Which Do You Like Better?

[UNT_playmaker]

Which helmet would you like better the White or Green Helmet with the same logo, of course.

My choice is the Green Helmet

it is bolder, more intimidating, and a better way to symbolize the mean green

What do yall think?

[stebo]

I was skeptical about the WHITE but I like them now. I understand the theory about being able to see the receivers down field better and we haven't had a white helmet since 1967. It will be cool to see these white helmets in action, not going to judge just yet.

This is a great question.

On one hand I would rather have Green helmets, but only if they were the Forrest Green color of old. I don't want helmets in the new Kelly green color. It is bad enough I am having to buy two of each of the shirts and caps of everything else I wear with North Texas on it, since I refuse to buy anything with the new color on it - it is getting harder to do find stuff with the Forrest green though.

I will say though, I will have an easier time getting used to the white helmets than I will the SLC uniforms.

White

White helmet w/ green SOW or Green helmet w/white SOW

White looks really good to me, I liked the green too. With all the recruiting TD is pulling off already, he can paint them solid white for all I care. If TD keeps up the energy that I keep seeing and hearing about with the team, marketing the school and the team, this incredible recruiting, and what I expect will eventually turn in to success on the football field, he can do whatever he likes with the uniform and helmet.

Agree.

I like the new helmets.

I like the new helmets.

Ditto...

Doesn't really matter now. The white ones are just as good as green if they match the unis well.

True

Any idea when the jerseys will be unveiled

According to the early banner I posted in another thread, pieces of the uniform will be unveiled over the next two weeks and you can see the whole uniform at the Kickoff Cookout.

Green is my favorite color but I still like the white helmets as long as their not plain white.

[ParksAndRecRick]

New helmets! New day! New Vision! Let's unite to excite!!!!!

[Ibleedgreen]

GMG1999...I, also, refuse to buy any shade of green but the forest. The UNT bookstore still has a pretty good supply of it. They recognize that most of the alums prefer it.

White.

In NCAA 08, you can create a team and use the current NCAA logos. I made the new helmet with their "North Texas" on it, which is the one with the SoW attached to the "N" and it looked pretty sharp. Sure, the "North Texas" is smaller, but it would include the SoW logo.

How does this theory play out when your opponent is wearing a white helmet?

Our guys in the white helmets will be bigger, faster, and more talented.

[eppy4life]

White helmet w/ green SOW or Green helmet w/white SOW

This would be my vote as well.

Green is what I like better...

...but whatever makes them play better, and whatever the TEAM wants, I'll support.

...but let's stick with it once we get going...

...but, I will say that I do feel that it is important for the new guy coming in (as in Todd Dodge) to be able to quickly establish this as his program. If that takes us changing our uniforms (truly, it is symbolic), even for WHITE helmets, well then so be it. As they say, "Out with the Old...In with the New!"
