These are being shown to the recruits on their official visits.

Not bad guys. I guess everyone is jumping on the matte black helmet bandwagon.

Oddly, I like the powder blue helmets, especially if they incorporate the sea-foam green into it.

Granted, it'll be reminiscent of UNC, but I guess you guys are kind of filling that role in years to come aren't you?

Hopefully your basketball can become equivalent!

...honestly???? why black first off (and either pic is not defining or someone bomb-canned that thing) and the one behind it looks like UNC

I want USM to go with carbon fiber plaid both black and in lettering...and we have one of the best polymer science schools...talk to each other...is amazing how productive it could be...of course CF could be a banned material and I just don't feel like looking it up

Stick with white or solid green. Black & the powder blue just dont work.

The Powder Blue could be pulled off.

Not that I don't like the matte black but the sterile white "T" makes me not like it.

Some retro looks.

I like the two white ones on the right, not feeling the matte black or the powder puff blue.

Powder blue looks awesome, the matte black could use some work.

Tulane should keep it simple. Their white helmet, green jersey w/ blue trim, and white pants is one of the better uniforms in college football.

Agreed.

The powder blue is pretty cool. But I really like the logo on the black matte helmet. It looks a bit simpler than the other designs.

Unless Tulane is planning to have a blackout game (which is not a good thing since they don't have black in their colors) they need to stick to something more them.

Historically, Tulane has produced several different symbols and four different colors of helmets. There have been blue, silver, white, and green (and now white) helmets. Personally, I feel Tulane can reintroduce one of the four previous colors without having to use black or another color not mentioned. But I fully realize any new "looks" will be a balancing act between the marketing needs of the administration, the image of the current coaches, the new or hip look desired by players, recruits, students, and the sensitivity to pay tribute with a wide age range of influential alumni.

Bottom line...I hope that the marketing folks can revisit (on an occassional basis) some of great past colors, designs and logos. I hope TU will be sensitive to our older alumni and be an advocate for an occasional use of the older colors and symbols.... and frankly I hope there is a place in the new Tulane Yulman stadium that will present or showcase our history's various colors and designs allowing alumni from every era feel welcome.

FIFY

Switch it up with a matte DARK GREEN?

a matte sandpaper texture colored in green would be awesome....have the raised points in silver would be perfect.....starting to feel like these guys...

I'm not a fan. Just doesn't vibe with Tulane's color scheme in my opinion. Maybe if they were going with the matte them maybe a matte green like I think Michigan State did or a matte powder blue if that's possible. I think with the blue and green you guys could have some wild color combinations like Oregon.

I don't care for the matte black.

But then again, I'm not a 300 pound 18-year-old kid from New Orleans. If it helps recruiting, tradition and sensibility can certainly be downplayed.

But they" haaaaaaaaaaaaaaated it":high5:

Tulane is green. Tulane is known for being green. Stay green. Flat green helmets would be nice.

I'm not crazy about the black stealth helmets. I like the one in my avatar.
