Couple weeks back there was some rumblings from the Equipment Department about some cool new digs.... Think they'll look something like this? For the record, these new UNLV unis are sick.

Awesome look for the Rebs. Love that red helmet.

One of these days, Wyo will use the helmet in my avatar. Hopefully on a regular basis. Nothing wrong with the white helmet, but also nothing wrong with changing things up.

That helmet, a new gold jersey, brown pants. Aesthetically, I'd put that up against anything in college football.

Yes. Duck wings, sagebrush...borderline satanic symbols. Whatever the hell they are, stop.

If there was one thing DC got right it was the brown helmet. Having said that, I don't think he did it on purpose. He just threw five handfulls of spagetti at the wall and one stuck.

Nice f-word ethics Troy.

The design is part of the uniform it's for durability not something they added for looks.

Nike Flywire technology consists of strategically placed filaments that function like cables on a suspension bridge to offer support precisely where it’s needed.

I like whatever 17-18 year old 3 star and 4 star recruits like. I say go with that.

I know the flywire is for durability but I'm betting yellow flywire isn't any stronger than brown. Yellow flywire is for visibility and that poop looks bad.

It is outdated technology that is what it is! I am with you guys on the brown helmets. The only thing I would say is paint them so they look like weathered leather. You want "Cowboy tough?" how about a bunch of guys with their head wrapped in old school leather! LOL

I know Slow Hand, you need to be sitting down for this......I am agreeing with you as I think that you have a great idea! I really wish that UW would go back to the brown helmets, and paint them to be weathered would be truly original, and denote a toughness, of how guys used to play the game without face masks and without real padding. The tough will win. Great idea! and oh yes, the duck wing shoulders can go lay an egg some where else....they are a fad that has seen its day.

P.S. - What do think are the chances that UW will utilize a brown helmet scheme here in the near future?

Bohl seemed to latch onto tradition, but he seems like the type of individual who is open minded to new approaches. It could happen.

Ha Ha, I am amazed that the earth didn't stop moving when Potato and I agree. I am not sure we will break with tradition until we start winning.

We could always go back to this jewel. Lol

Wyoming has a long history with the brown helmets. The first game I saw of Wyoming's was the 1976 Fiesta Bowl game against Oklahoma, and Wyoming wore the brown helmets. The gold helmets are ok, but the brown are much better imo.

I just saw this one siting on Mad Dog's Shelf and though it was interesting. I didn't realize that we ever wore a gold helmet.

It was worn from 1977-80.
