          Using Adidas (or Nike, Under Armour, etc.) is a copout. The AD has final signoff on any alternate helmets/jerseys that are worn. Nike went to USC with a black alternate jersey a couple years ago and USC told them to piss off.

          If Michigan wears a ****ing yellow helmet, it's because the Pizza Man gave it the green light.

            Also, I very much question the authenticity of that photo.

              There wouldn't be a yellow helmet to green light if Adidas didn't come up with it.

                That's also false, at least in Michigan's case. The Pizza Man has specifically asked Adidas to come up with a new jersey every year.

                And regardless, who cares? The person that green lights a ****ty product is infinitely worse than the person who comes up with the concept of it.

                  Well I was making a bit of a funny. I don't think it's ALL the suppliers' faults when it comes to these things. Sometimes we've seen cases where the coaching staffs of some schools or the players themselves making the egregious uniform choices.

                  I do see your point though for instance, I can't see Pat Haden allowing something completely ridiculous being worn by USC under his watch.

                    Apparently that photo was authentic, but Adidas butchered the photoshop

                    @sbnuniforms Sorry about that. After a closer look, you are right. Helmet is incorrect. Our apologies.

                      Is the botched part the blue line? Cause that makes it look like a different helmet.

                        Going back to the FSU thing. I hated how the uniforms looked when zoomed out. Numbers and Helmet were just too shiny or something. May have been slightly better with gold pants.

                        Hopefully the Garnet/Gold combo looks better in Saturday as I really like how those looked when launched

                          I really don't get why they went gold numbers on the white unis. The accents are garnet, if you make the numbers garnet then they're pretty much perfect.

                                maybe I'am biased, but UNC and Duke have both used black unis before state. Its a repeating pattern, Very few things that look good for state, haven't been done by Duke or UNC. Just sayin
