MJWalker45 5,752 Posted September 7, 2014 Is that a clip art logo because my high school (Pius X in Nebraska) played the Omaha Benson Bunnies who had that same logo? Or did one rip off the other?Probably clip art. What school is this? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chilton92 30 Posted September 7, 2014 Here's a look at some of the helmets in the Alabama High School Athletic Association and the Alabama Independent Schools Association. Some of them are last year's designsThe white helmet with the knight helmet? It's Northside Methodist Academy, and I graduated from there. They started football last year and got their first win the other day. The decal is way smaller than the one pictured--although I wish it were that big--and the uniforms are plain, but not bad for a new program. I don't have a picture of them, though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GeauxColonels 733 Posted September 8, 2014 High school football went into full swing last night in Louisiana. Here's probably one of the best looking match-ups in the state last night, East St John Wildcats (public) versus Archbishop Rummel Raiders (private):What the what? Since when did the Steelers get demoted to the high-school level?And the team name is the Wildcats??Yep. It's the alma mater of infamous #1 overall HS recruit Ryan Perriloux. They had a pretty stable look for years with the same helmet:After their longtime coach retired, they've gone through a number of looks:Here's them at the beginning of last season....And this is what the "Wildcats" looked like by the end of the season... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
guest23 1,493 Posted September 8, 2014 Any idea on the reason for the tape?The tape is there to keep chin straps buckled. Especially with buckles that have been used a season +, they have a tendency to pop off mid-play on the high strap. That helps to keep them on and subsequently avoid penalties for players not having a chinstrap buckled/losing a helmet and having to sit a play....that's what we did when I coached in a pinch, anyway.There are a couple of easy solutions out there. You could go 90's old school and drill a small hole through the strap then replace the snap with a screw or simply purchase some of the newer permanent chin strap holders which hold the chin strap into place either as a one piece snap on or screw in. Tape would only be necessary in the most rare of situations. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustABallCoach 29 Posted September 8, 2014 Somehow every other team manages to have the helmets without tape. It looks like they are going outside the facemask instead of inside it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustABallCoach 29 Posted September 8, 2014 The Elkins Knights have a lot of weird things going on this year. They can't decide which gold is theirs, including having two different shades on the helmet. That's weird enough, but having wings on the jersey makes no sense to me. The Knights...with wings..hmm.They took on Houston ISD's Lamar Texans last friday. Lamar had been named Redskins until this season. Here is how they looked when Jake Matthews went there. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Storm Chaser 1 Posted September 8, 2014 I remember hearing once that Millard North's tape on the helmets was to signify that all the players are equal and part of the team. Hear me out, some times in practice when coaches are getting to know their players they put tapes on the helmets with the names of the players on them.Once the players become more known the tape comes off, I always thought the tape served as a reminder that they still have something to earn, a mentality of we need to improve every day, game. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wonderbread 382 Posted September 8, 2014 But the tape would go on the front, not all the way around 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jungle Jim 871 Posted September 9, 2014 What genius came up with the idea to put bengal tiger stripes on a wildcat's head? Good lord.Aren't tigers a type of wild cat?Not sure if you were kidding, but yes, tigers are wild cats, but that's not the same as "wildcats" (one word). Wildcats do have stripes, but they're not as distinctive as those on tigers. Maybe I overreacted a bit, though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
