guest23 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Saw this on a WVU board. A display of the entire grey uniform, except this picture appears to have the pro combat helmet from 2010 as opposed to the grey one pictured a few pages back. Personally I think it looks good with the pro combat helmet, but idk how reliable this source is. Here's the link, it won't let me post the picture for whatever reason. http://yfrog.com/oco69ztjEDIT: That's not even the pro combat helmet actually. It looks like its similar to the pro combat but is the original original grey helmet that was shown like months ago. I'm talking like 30-40 pages back. (This one --- Here)Please don't say "pro combat helmet". You are in danger of being subjected to (and having the rest of us also be subjected to) an annoying, condescending, and all-together, brain numbingly boring lecture that may go on for pages.saying it was the pro combat helmet was so much faster than saying "the helmet that is not a pro combat helmet that went along with the pro combat uniform and was worn one time with the pro combat set, but not with the regular uniform set" but alas we must never use the term pro combat when referring to these special helmets;You're still messing it up. When you are saying pro combat, what you really mean is pro combat rivalry. You would be adding 1 more word, not 25 like in your example.TCU's regular uniforms in 2010 were pro combat:TCU's uniforms vs. Oregon State were pro combat rivalry:see the difference? Both use the same material, but one has a special deisgn (incl. the helmets)whilst you are 100% correct, you are simply fighting a battle that will never be won.

gdu Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Also...gdu, DROP IT. We don't need any more of that senseless "argument" spamming up this thread. Just ignore it, dude, and move on.I very clearly had. Botiger and I moved on. Then several people brought it up in ways that would require responses, so I responded. If people don't want to talk about it anymore, then don't. I won't be bringing it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

razorback447 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 It's obviously a little abstract yeah, but I think if you showed a curved zigzag pattern to a million Arkansas fans, they'd get the reference.The Chargers? I bet you the Arkansas fans wouldn't get the reference unless they were told, and I'm pretty sure I know more Arkansas fans than you.If you wanted to get the reference, the serrations should have been shorter and in greater quantity. Like a saw.I'm an Arkansas fan and I knew exactly what it was when I saw it.It's supposed to be similar to the back of our current Razorback logo. I get what you're saying though about the serrations and they could stand to be a little shorter on the silver part. Considering it basically looks like a lighting bolt though in the red part of the logo anyways, I don't think they are really that far off using what they did even if it is an old Chargers lightning bolt.

hailstateunis Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Plus, Arkansas fans see that logo alot more than any non-Arkansas fan, so they would probably have a better chance of recognizing it. http://www.hailstateunis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I figured out what it was, but I'm still pretty sure the rest of the world will call it a lightning bolt and be done with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
