I have noticed something that I haven't noticed in years past, maybe I wasn't paying attention before so it may be nothing. But nobody has any stripes or logos on their helmets this year in fall practice carried over from last year. And with the marketing of North Alabama instead of UNA, will the North Alabama logo be added instead of the UNA logo?
(I wish we would keep the UNA logo, it's been our longest running design so far and I like tradition) but I guess it's a new era.
I'm sure we will have 2 primary designs, one in purple and one in white, then a lion like last year. I would like to also see a Gold helmet with a solid purple stripe, I saw an old photo of George "Goober" Lindsay when he played for Florence State and that was the style helmet they had. Looks like Penn State except better.

The travel players will have decades purple helmets while the scout teams don’t have any decals

But I may be thinking about spring ball.

Yeah that’s spring ball because every summer, all the helmets get shipped off to get reconditioned and repainted for the upcoming season

I’d like to see a gold version of the helmet in my avatar, with the lion purple with a white outline. I think that would be a pretty darn good looking design. Pair it with some gold pants? Yes, please.
Brandon brought up a good question about the helmet logo. I don’t think they necessarily have to change it, but it will seem a little strange to use “UNA” on the helmet when everything else says North Alabama. But I think using the North Alabama version of the logo will look too busy. So who knows.
