RE: New Helmet?
I dont like em particularly but the players are raving about them on snapchat and such... As a recruiting tool what we are doing is working. Just win and we can wear whatever.

Tough crowd. I kinda like um. and like UofToledoFans says, it's all part of the recruiting race these days. The players love the multiple jerseys/helmets and the more modern looks.
Here's a better picture, posted on the Rockets Facebook page:

Well, it's OK. If you're going to that extent, why not put a few gold or silver flecks in the blue to make it look like stars in the background of the Rocket?

Miami Redhawks went that route as well with their new helmets. I don't think they wear their traditional white helmet with the red Block "M" anymore.
I like tradition, you don't see the Michigan's, Alabama, Penn state, Southern Cal change their helmet design!

But Ohio State does, Minnesota does, MSU, Purdue, Stanford etc... Lots have incorporated black, or matte finish. Some schools never had tradition and have been gimmicky for a while (oregon, oklahoma state, maryland).
We are usually a trend setter and Underarmour loves us. Our jerseys are simple and stylish.... They havent been bad since 09 when we had russel. Yes the pinks were bad and a few grey combos. We're not changing jerseys as much as some schools tho and im thankful for that. I hope we have regular helmets too tho...
