What a mess, especially the helmets.

Wow, some cool stuff there, some ugly stuff too.

I like the feather pattern on the helmets, but I don't like the "M" being on the front or spelling out "Miami" around the back.

I'm not much of a fan of the "MI-AMI" across the shoulders. It doesn't make sense to me as you have to be looking down on them to even notice it. The "A" gets lost as the helmet covers most of it and the "I"s look tiny compared to the "M". When I first looked at it, I just thought there was an "M" on each shoulder.

It's definitely a departure from the traditional green and orange, but why not be bold? I commend Mr. Sayler on his efforts to rebrand Miami.

The suck factor is huge......The "A" isn't really discernible across the shoulders so it looks like they play for "MI MI".

What are those "X" things on the helmets? Kind of looks like lacrosse sticks.

They are crossed oars as their coach likes to say Row the Boat.

Speaking of WMU...they picked up seven...7!...verbals last night. Fleck is putting together a very strong class. Don't know if he'll keep them...like the QB from Sturgis who's a **** guy on a couple of the services...but he's off to a hell of a start.

Flip,
Not only this, but the last TOTAL numbers of verbals they had, at least on one site, showed TWENTY-NINE, and on another site, TWENTY SIX. This looks like the SEC verbal lists that consistently show these numbers above the twenty five "limit" usually in place.

Their coach talks a good game. We'll see how he does on the field. He also looks like Ryan Seacrest:
