What would be the impetus for them to get this done.  If players saw this, I would bet they would push for it.

$. Start a fund. We’d get these funded in no time.

Updated with the new silver helmet: https://www.helmethistory.com/north-dakota.html

 

Looking at the helmet history, I would love to see UND mix in a white helmet. Add a green facemask and use the hawk logo with the green "ND" and it would look really sharp. The Ohio State theme looks awesome, but green and white has always been my favorite look.

White would be cool too. Regardless we need to use the modern interlocking ND so we don’t have to worry about permission. 
 

the existing gray helmets would also go well with a true throwback jersey design too. We need to find money to have multiple jersey options like Oregon. Sells your program for what it costs it will bring you notoriety!

They’re on this site and I’m sure some  people on here who have the right connections have/will forward this on to the right people.

This is exactly what I was going for.  Awesome mock up!!  I still think we should save the "interlocking ND" logo for the Bison games.  Put the green hawk logo that they used to have on the helmets on the grey helmet, then we have a legit home jersey.

who was the guy that came up with the "blacks" for the men's hockey team.......didn't he have a whole mockup/presentation for his boss(s) and sold HIS idea?

when they did it they did it right....top to bottom iirc

so far over the last few years bottoms that didn't really match anything......absolutely horrendous green tops...and now the grey helmets that kinda went with the blacks....

but imagine if a year ago someone in the football side of things (or heck anyone in the AD's marketing dept) came up with an idea for the "grays" and had a presentation/mockup ready for his/her boss(s) and had a call list of former football players to get this done for the ndac game?

Now we know why random people will associate our logo with the eagles. Has happened multiple times to me especially in the airport. Great job UND for coming up with a creative and unique nickname and logo!

I heard during the ISU broadcast that UND got special permission from Notre Dame to use the interlocking ND logo on the helmets for the NDSU game.  I know there was some discussion on that earlier.

Does UND not have the money to put a different interlocking ND ( and. Trademark we actually own) on the shoulder or does someone in the athletic department really think those helmets looked good with nothing on them?

Either way shame on UND. We looked like a bunch of ragglemuffins out there. Such a joke out uniforms have been the past decade. 
 

that gray helmet doesn’t match that black uniform in the first place with or without a logo on it!

The interlocks were either (a) not owned or (b) retired. 

I think the new secondary hawk looks helmet-worthy (because is it mirrorable).

Care to explain this to me and my fellow Raiders fans?

The silver helmets would go better if we had a silver/grey pant.

Four colors is too many. Plus the helmet stripes do not match the shoulder stripes. Raiders uniform has gray on more that just the helmet.
 

explain to me how the combo looks good?

Does Notre Dame own all ND trademarks or just the one? Seems pretty silly to have not trademarked the interlocking ND that I have on Mechandise. It had a TM but question is do we own it and if it is retired. 

What a disaster Schaefer left us with !

UND football hasn't had a solid set of uniforms since 2001. Those were classic and simple.  Every since then they have switched styles and colors almost every couple of seasons.

We had to get permission from Our Lady of South Bend to use the block interlock. Doesn't that answer the question. 

The stylized ND interlock is retired. When it came out many disliked it because it wasn't the block (which was owned by ...). 

When the new logo came the decision was made to get rid of any potential problems with an interlock. 

[GoodGood]

I’m genuinely shocked by the number of people that want to add grey to a uniform set. There’s a reason almost every school has added all white and all black to their uniform combos. Not many rushing to add grey.

anyone on here gonna do a mockup of the new alt bird logo on a green or black helmet?

This is only 100% correct. Everyone needs to see the mock up done earlier of Kelly green jerseys with silver helmets/pants in style of Ohio state. It’s only spot on what UND should do. Only debate would be what logo to put on the helmet …

This would be perfect for home.  I think a simple white top with green or silver numbers would look good for road.  Then build from that point.  But, build this as the base going forward.

Here is an example of silver pants and white top would look like..  keep it simple and basic.

Love these. Maybe we could use helmet stickers....instead of Buckeye stickers we hand out Mike stickers to players who have big games or game changing plays.
