Bobcat Football to Sell Blue Helmets to Public

Post by kmax » Fri Jan 29, 2016 11:36 am

Image courtesy of http://www.mghelmets.com/big%20sky.htmlThe Montana State Univeristy Bobcats Football team in conjunction with the equipment office has announced that they will be putting up for sale a limited number of blue Bobcat helmets used during the past few Bobcat Football seasons.  The first opportunity to puchase the authentic blue Bobcat helmets will be during both men's and women's Cat-Griz basketball games on January 29th, 2016.  The helmets feature the Cat head logo on one side and a player number on the other side.  Purchasers will be able to customize the number on the helmet.  The helmets will sell for $120 (plus $5 if needing to be shipped) and will only be available while supplies last.  All questions regarding the sale of the blue helmets can be directed to Scott Gifford, (406) 994-2423 or sgifford@msubobcats.com.Read the Full Article on BobcatNation

It would be cool if a sportsbar in town bought them and made some sort of display out of them.

So does that mean the team won't be using the blue helmets next season: Or are they only selling extras?

So teams with one helmet are generally better than teams with multiple helmets? Someone tell Oregon, Baylor, Notre Dame, Boise, etc.

How many do you need?? 4 or 5. Maybe get a committee of players coaches and fans together to design and hold debates about what ones to use. Maybe they'll have time to get in a few practices also.

Maybe when they're consistent conference champs snd go far in the playoffs let them consider more.

on a related note, I kind of had a feeling Rob Ash was on his way out when he started tweeting about #MoreSwagU....that was just a bad omen altogether.

Meh. Some folks herd sheep. Here's hoping the coaches can focus them on football.
