Question Re New Helmut Graphics

[northwoods]

Maybe I just missed it earlier in the season, but I'm curious if anyone else has noticed that our helmets now have a stripe, the player's number, and an additional type of script on them that seems to vary play-to-player (there was a lot of it on Carter's helmet). This thread isn't meant to be negative, but rather just an attempt to learn when the change occurred and what the additional stuff on the helmets is meant to acknowledge or designate. Thanks.

Slippery slope. Next thing you know they'll be wearing white shoes.

Also had the blue stripe on the pants. I assume that was a bit of a throwback look for Homecoming.

Not sure if this is meant to be serious

Generations of Greatness

I'm guessing you may have very recently become a PSU fan?
PSU has done these very same "Generations of Greatness" throwback uniforms for at least 8 seasons now, as this article is from 2017 and can still be found on the gopsusports.com website.
I believe there is no variance from player to player on any aspect of the script, regardless of where it is on the uniform.

Oh, I was quite serious. I've been following Penn State football since the Rip Engel days, but clearly "muffed" on this one.

At least we’ll never have names on the back of the jerseys.

To quote Sheriff Buford T Justice, the go**amn Germans got nothing to do with this.

That wasn’t script on Carter’s helmet. Helmets vary with the slots on them. It’s a helmet variation, specifically a Riddell Speed flex helmet

Thought maybe he was referring to the padding at the base of the back of the helmet. A lot of teams have varying social agenda slogans there. Didn’t take note of what ours say. Don’t think it’s anything notable but I could be wrong.
