I HATE white helmets, they should never be worn, even with white uniforms.

I would like to see that same helmet with the 901 in place of the player's numbers. As another option to Friday night - not in place of... I really like them.

Loved the helmets we wore Friday night against Tulsa. They looked great in person.

For some reason I seem to remember reading that putting an area code on the uniform violates an NCAA rule...

I remember people questioning it last year, and then we did it. So I assumed the answer was no, not a violation. Did we get a call after that game we did it?

I generally like all of our uniform combos. But didn’t love the plain white helmets.

I don't recall us doing it last year. I would assume it is okay if they did it last year.

I don't know when this was, but it can't be the spring game, right? Not with all that production going on. Anybody got a clue?

Definitely doesn't look like the spring game.

I wonder how out of town recruits view the 901 helmet, though. Unis are for current players and recruits. Would the 901 helmet make a connection with a HS kid from Nashville?

The 901 helmets debuted at the 2015 Spring Game with Fuente... Still looking for the one in that picture...

The plain white helmets actually had white Bengal stripes on them if you look closely. Not a fan at all of the 901 helmets. The gray helmets vs Tulsa were awesome. Only change I'd like would be a smaller, all blue leaping tiger logo on both sides instead of the uniform #. Those would make some perfect permanent helmets (w/ the blue facemasks).

home - gray helmets, blue jerseys, gray pants
road- gray helmets, white jerseys, blue pants

Could always change that up some (all blues a la the 1996 TN game), or have a blackout/ whiteout, etc

Thought I'd never like white, but now I do. It's a brite white...not a dull white.

Must've been woven with some shiny threads.

Players and recruits love rotating the uniforms and not wearing the same combination twice...

Nice find, I did not recall us wearing them during an actual game last year.
