Decals on the helmet? How about the facemask? Southern Miss is one of two teams in the NCAA this year making original and unique adjustments to the facemask.

Southern Miss will use the 'Eagles' seen on the facemask above during the 2008 football season. As is the case with other decals, these can be customized to team specifications and are expected to be adopted by other collegiate and professional football teams in 2009.

Huh

What in the world are they getting out of that? The logo’s already on the side of the helmet, and it already says “Eagles” on the padding at the top of the mask. Too many straight-ahead shots in the papers?

The Bower marketing machine is the only piece of equipment left for Fedora. (Other than the machine that gave Derrick Nix the bad dose.)
