While we do have a classic and I love it, high school kids these days like flashy brands and uniform combos appeal to them. A lot of the top players drool over being able to pick out combos. I always thought it would be cool to have the classic orange helmet, and then a clemson purple alternate and a white alternate and alternate it with uniforms.

Let them go play for Oregon if all they care about is uniform combinations. Clemson's uniform is classic.

One of the best alternate Clemson helmets I've seen....


Sep 14, 2018, 1:47 PM

but no !!!

I've said it before and I will say it again. There are just two simple rules that apply to Clemson's helmets.

Rule No. 1 - Don't ever, EVER, under any circumstances mess with Clemson's helmets

Rule No. 2 - Don't ever, EVER, under any circumstances forget Rule No. 1

Sep 14, 2018, 2:05 PM

If you want gimmicky chrome helmets, go to LOO-ville.

If you want Chick-fil-A sponsoring your helmets, go to USuC.

If you want to look like a fabric store exploded on your head, go to Maryland.

If you have zero imagination and want to play where you're just a number, Bama is for you.

If you need a different helmet every game, go to Oregon.

If you are all about a classic, and about winning, choose that orange helmet with a white paw rotated to 1 o'clock.

Re: TNET: LOOK: Clemson 2018 Riddell Speed Chrome helmet


Sep 15, 2018, 10:14 AM

Why do some act like it is a decision the school is trying to make? Clemson isn't ever going to make dramatic changes to their helmet. Yes they have done little tweaks here and there but the look is the same. Just admire it for what it is, a concept helmet. No one is trying to change tradition and by liking the helmet it isn't some how an endorsement of change. Who knows if they'll ever do anything but we do know that while Dabo is here it isn't going to change because he is a traditionalist. If you don't like it fine but trying to say you don't like it because you somehow think it endorses change is asinine. It's all for fun nothing less nothing more. I like the helmet but that doesn't mean I want to see them wearing it today.

Statement


Nov 7, 2013, 3:39 PM

You make a statement by being who you are and being recognized for what you do. The helmet is a tradition that represents all that has been achieved and accomplished. Dont tarnish it with some cheap, gaudy, unknown garbage. That is a copy of all those other teams that are trying to attract attention because thats all they have .... A momentary interest because of the flash but no substance.

Riddell made these Chrome helmets in many teams this year


Sep 16, 2018, 11:38 AM

Riddell made these Chrome helmets in many teams this year. Every year the NFL has a special mini helmet made for all teams. A few years ago it was ICE, last year it was Blaze and this year its Chrome. Riddell went ahead and made about 20 NCAA teams in Chrome this year


Here is what some of them look like. Like I said, its a speed mini helmet
