I like the idea of changing it up, but it looks like the UNC Panthers

:barf: It's bad enough knowing the our 'electric/Panthers blue' is derived from Duke and UNC blues mixed.  Yeah, they would actually have to get the correct shade of blue because that is obviously is not the same as the stripes in CMCs jersey.

I remember Mark Richardson telling a story about the blue--something about being in Hawaii and seeing the blue there, and they liked it.  Electric Blue was the term.  I have never heard that the Duke /UNC colors were used--if that were the case, then why leave out Clemson, SC, State, etc?

The black accent and visor tint gives it a little more meanness than the aforementioned design. Not a bad thing.

Can you wear a black visor? 

This helmet is better, but if you want your brand to stand out---white background.  JMO

I saw somewhere that Jerry Richardson had the two blue shades (Duke/UNC) mixed and dubbed that resulting color electric blue.

Richardson wanted the color scheme to be black and blue.  Black is black, but blue comes in countless shades.  Again, that's how it was said he came up with the electric blue.

I looked for the Hawaii story and could not find it.  Both are probably correct to some degree, but I would say it is a mistake taking colors from 2 universities in NC and selling it to both states.  Surprised we are not wearing Wofford Black and Gold.

Not sure, I feel like Thomas Davis wore one at some point if I remember correctly.

 

By white background do you mean white helmet?

      I’m gonna say it… I’m proud of Bryce.

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      We don't have to tear down Dak to appreciate what Bryce did yesterday. Dak had 0 running game. If the cowboys were better, he'd be a legit MVP candidate if he keeps playing this way.  They did it with Ceedee last year, but they do a better job of anybody we play consistently of getting their best receiver off Jaycee.  Bryce was good too. If we just catch the ball that was intercepted, we probably win by 7+, and Bryce goes over 200 yards passing.  Biggest shift the last few weeks has been play calling. I thought Canales abandoned the run game way to early at times last year. This year he really seems to be sticking with it.  I still think Chuba is better at making 4 yards when there's nothing there, but Rico is better at making 30 yards when there's 6 there. I like the direction. Hopefully we can get Moton, Sanders and Coker back and really be dangerous. Our play action game is pretty deadly right now.  Unrelated: My favorite quality about Bryce right now is his ability to see the defensive hold and throw the ball there. He EXPOSES the officials when they don't call it. That one on Tetaroia yesterday late in the game was a bad miss on their part.

      This is a game the Panthers should win... just the sort of game they lose. The Panthers have a bad habit that goes back years of playing down to the competition's level only to mess around and lose the game. The Jets game should be taken very seriously! But I want to enjoy the fact that they beat the Cowboys for at least another day or so!
