Collect actual helmets from NCAA football teams....big fan of the Bobcats (daughter in third year at Athens)...any idea where I can get one of the great Green helmets the Cats wore in the Penn State and Marshall wins?  I've seen the Schutt collectible white helmets on all the gear sites. Thanks for any suggestions!

I am almost positive that the Green and Black min-helmets do not exist as of yet.  Only the White ones exist.  I would guess that they eventually will exist.

Thanks....looking for the regulation size helmet, and will keep an eye out.  By the way to all, played D3 football at Mount Union back in the day, but having way more fun following the Bobcats' success!  Hope they do everything great that 's been discussed on the board! I'll be cheering for them!

The white mini and full-replica can be purchased in a lot of places - including places like Amazon 

If you want to look Just Google "Ohio Bobcats Schutt Replica Full Size Football Helmet" or "Ohio Bobcats Schutt Mini-Helmet".....
 
I think that the Green Helmets have been used twice this year.  The Black ones first appeared last year.

Have not found anyone selling the full size green one yet.

There is a seller on ebay selling minis of all the OU helmets of the past even the all white with the huge green stripe

Yeah I am pretty sure neither the Black or Green helmets are for sale at all.  About the only way to get one is to win one from an Athletics contest like my older brother did with the Green Helmet, which now is displayed on his mantle, lol.

Would this be something that might be available at the surplus sale in the spring? I've never attended, but I would think that would be the best bet to acquire one (legally, anyway....).

See link below.

OK, so they do exist.  That's very neat.  If I knew they were close to 100% accurate I'd consider forking out $300 just to have the dozen or so mini-helmets stretched out in order as the new decoration on my mantle.

I have my doubts though.  I started in school when we had the 91-94 helmet and I think that it was Hunter Green just like the similar one before it with different striping.  I also have doubts about if all the stuff on the site is officially licensed.

If you look at the intervals...

Ohio 2003 is... ?missing?

I honestly don't remember any changes... what did our helmet look like then?

Well the green one for this year doesn't match that one.  The pic of it on their site looks glossy and our green helmets had a matte finish.
