Much ado about nothing akin to rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic

Looks awesome. Would look awesome-er if it were dark royal purple and silver!
And if the shirts are black & silver with purple trim on Saturday, they'd look awesome-er as dark royal purple & silver with black trim too!

I hate and may later regret saying that I frankly don't give a rat's ass about helmets until we win a few more games. This is just not happening at a time when I can fully embrace it as if we were 3-0 and running the tables.
But it does look awesome and if it somehow lights a spark I'm all for it. And yes the black unis should probably follow, as I suggested earlier, and would look vicious.
No one is abandoning the royal purple here - purple is such a unique color that even if it were used as an accent it would still make its presence felt.

Black helmets at HC... hell has frozen over. The creature with the horns and pitchfork is wearing a fur coat because last weekend Dartmouth was wearing black jerseys and silver helmets in their game against UNH, and even more of a break from tradition, Harvard last weekend in their game against Rhode Island also wore black Jerseys, with Crimson britches 😱 Stanford also broke from tradition a couple of years ago, and debuted all black uniforms, with matted black helmets. Looking forward to HC looking sharp on Saturday, with a Stout defense against the Big Green!

The new mirror-like silver stripe/logo on the helmets might be very cool on a sunny day.

Which makes me wonder if the reflection on a sunny day from the many helmets on the field and sideline could interfere with sighting the ball.

Seven pages about stupid uniforms. Today's sign that the apocalypse is upon us. There are other signs but I don't want to risk a ban for introducing political topics.

HC92, From the posts (especially the early guesses about the design), it is clear there is interest by some. If you are not interested you could simply not read the thread. I do wonder how uniforms can be classified as "stupid." What is the average IQ of a uniform in your estimation?

Here's the look for today. Apparently pants are purple too, according to the tweet.
