    What log have you been living under? Vandy is going to be a decent team this year and with the way they are recruiting, James Franklin is tunring that program around big time!

    Currently have the #19 ranked class for 2013

    What were they last year, 6-6? Thats a very good year for them hope they keep it up. That's doubtful. Every single good coach they ever get (which hasn't been many) has promptly left. They also have poor attendance. Lived in Nashville for 5 yrs. The Dors are cute. Love seeing them beat the big dogs for sure.

    Vandy came up with a raise and extension after year 1. They are also upgrading facilities to match. It really appears that Franklin is turning them around. Like I said, they were 6-6 last year and have parlayed that into a top 20 recruiting class. I really think they are a team on the rise.

    Vanderbilt has rewarded coach James Franklin with a contract extension after his first season with the Commodores.

    I agree. Would love to see a white helmet incorporated into the MSU uniform cycle.

    We'll always be at a disadvantage when it comes to the uniform combination game having just two colors to choose from. The bronze is growing on me, but will be a very tough sell to the cloud yellers. Green pants haven't had much success in this fan base either. Thank goodness for pro combats.

    I am sure if Hollis or Dantonio said to Nike or are helmet manufactures that we wanted a set of white helmets we would have them the next day. The powers at MSU might not want the alternate helmet right now as they think the current "brand" is growing. I just think there are a lot of misconceptions out colleges not being able to get certain uniforms or helmets.. EMU has three helmets...Most big time programs don't have multiple helmets (Tex, USC, OK, OSU, Neb, Bama, LSU, Tenn, ND, MICH, PSU, Georgia)

    LSU has a white helmet.
    UGA has a black helmet.
    Florida has a white helmet.
    ND changed the style of gold on their helmet seemingly every game last year.

    NO! You can't hope to have continued success with more than one helmet, two jerseys and one pair of pants!

    Sorry, Gunson...Nike is too busy with the nfl and can't spend any precious time on college matters.

    We are Green & White, so I don't see how having a white helmet would go against our "brand".

    Doesn't Nike really have anything to do with helmets? I mean, they don't make the helmets. The only thing I have seen is that they make eye shields for helmets. Everything else is Riddell or Schutt.

  • Hopefully we get some kind of new uni even if we aren't getting PCs, you heard Duzzi say how much of an affect they had.

    Call me a traditionalist if you will but I hope MSU never wears a white helmet.

    Biggie tried, it failed
    Duffy tried, it failed.

    I like the "Bad Luck" white helmets angle being part of our lore.

    I hope silver basketball uniforms being bad luck enters our lore as well.

    The helmets didn't fail, the team wearing them did. I'm not a superstition guy though.

    Riddell and Schutt are the manufacturers, but they don't determine what the logos/graphics are on the helmets. That's entirely up to the school & their uniform manufacturer/designer. For instance, Riddell didn't come up with the pro combat helmet design. I'm sure they worked closely with Nike and MSU though to get it done.

    Hydro Graphics Inc. is the company that Nike and adidas often contract out to to do the special helmet designs.
