This ranks up there with the clusterf*ck and shoot offense as one of my better ideas. I think I may like these even more:
Orange and Brown:
My Favorite so far
with the Kohlstrand Logo

Orange and White:
(colors reversed a la Globetrotter, I think)

They look nice, but the fade from orange to white on that revolution helmet screams Mall Airbrush T-Shirt to me.

Are you suggesting we get helmets with a unicorn on it and a #3 with a halo around it?

"Mall airbrush" is about equal to the time and effort I put into it. I think, TG, that DD is implying that we get some cool graffiti lettering for our jerseys.
I probably should have 'spelt' it "falconz"

San Diego State actually had/has airbrushed helmets:

I thought those were a little weak. The black was too narrow to be noticed. It was hard to tell what they actually looked like in the light.
I don't advocate airbrushing, just a solid color stripe following the curve of the helmet.

How about this: An orange helmet with a brown and white strip down the middle with the interlocking BG with the "peek-a-boo" Falcon?

That's the best mock-up I've seen.

I am thinking we need a poll...this is perfect off-season fodder.

I think the "BG" by itself would look great also. For me, it's hard to see that retail falcon on an orange helmet without a white outline.
30 - thanks for all of these great designs. If the athletic department and football staff are considering a helmet switch, I hope consideration is being given to some of these ideas. I actually like the vast majority of them.

White outline on my favorite helmet:
Just the BG - I like this one too.
