Helmet Stickers back!

Submitted by DrMantisToboggan on

Chris Balas (rivals) is reporting that Harbaugh has decided to bring back Helmet stickers and do away with Legends jerseys. This comes a day after Jim favorited a tweet from a fan asking if helmet stickers would come back this year. 

I am not sure about all of the feelings on this board, but I believe helmet stickers were one of our best aesthetic traditions until they were discontinued in the 90's. We had them for all of Bo's years except one, and you can be damn sure that Jimmy's helmet was covered in 'em.

Go Blue!

but with all the great plays in UMs future, make the sticker themselves smaller OR make it more difficult to get one.  Seeing osu helmets with all those damn stickers on them looks stupid, as if falling out of bed warrants getting one.

In high school, we got stickers for various things that we did throughout the game (TFL on defense, leading the team in tackles, creating a turnover...or....running for over 100 yards, scoring a TD, being on a special teams unit that scored a TD or created a turnover, being on the O-Line while the offense runs for more than 100,200,250 yards, etc...)

 

But we only got stickers if we won the game.

I really like the way Harbaugh is instituting his culture of constant competition.  In retrospect, we probably all should have seen this coming.  Then again, there is no retrospect in real time.

This, to me, is the primary distinction between our UTL and bumblebee uniforms.  If we had lost to Notre Dame and beaten MSU, there's no way that so many would believe that the UTL uniforms were pretty cool and the bumblebee uniforms were hideous.

FWIW, they were both hideous in my opinion, and if we're going to crap all over our uniforms, I'd rather crap on our road ones than home ones, since our home uniforms are the best in college sports.

I actually don't mind handing out medals at the end of the season as a way to commemorate the dedication the kid puts in all year. Then you give the winners something above and beyond to recognize their superior effort/talent.

The solid yellow ones were much better. Unless you have a super close up the wolverines in the newer stickers don't like wolverines they just look weird, messy and bad. The helmet looks smudged up.
