White Helmets

Agree. Let's go bowling consistently before we worry about what we look like in different color schemes. Just win the Damn game kiddos!

I think this is similar to the back-up QB is always better syndrome. Our current uniforms were originally presented with White helmets, that's what we were going to have. They gave the fans 3 choices. It was pretty overwhelming how many fans hated the white helmets with those uniforms. So I assume the clamoring for white helmets is just like the QB situation, "Well, we don't have it, so it must be better." It cracks me up that this is such a consistent topic here, considering white was the original plan that everyone hated.

WHy would we have white helmets. We need to stick to our identity. Our tradition. Kids these days want consistancy, they dont want flash or "the next big thing". They watch teams like oregon in the national championship game with disgust on their faces. Saying "look at those idiots, 240 uniform combos....what the h. No way would I go there, thats why Oregon is a bottom feeder".

Does Notre Dame have alt unis? Does Wisconsion? Does Nebraska? No they dont. They have tradition. The are building their brand on one uniform concept. Thats what we need to do. White helmets? More like leather helmets. Thats where its at. Tradition.

I just had a "Fiddler on the Roof" moment.

Tradition means something when that tradition includes WINNING. I say we nix the "tradition" BS until we win a conference championship.

I don't know why this has to be explained all the time but here it goes again...

No one is wanting white helmets EXCLUSIVELY. That is why people were against the original idea of ISU having a white helmet.
What people would like to see is a game or a couple with a white helmet. The white helmet with white jersey and pants for an away game. NOT every game. Just as an alternate.
Sometimes it's fun to mix things up.

Again, no one wants ISU to have ONLY a white helmet like the original concept. Just a white helmet as an alternate.
