Some Gamecock fans don't know their history. That appears to be a throwback "Scholarship, Leadership" era helmet. #19 or #21 in this pic

I had forgotten about # 36? 2015 vs Florida, not a bad Alt helmet look, but I'm sure I'm in the minority

#42 will always be a Muschamp era helmet to me, that one can be retired, it did not help us recruit much in Carolina (North) LOL

Yep. Stick with one home uniform combo, and one away uniform combo.

People argue that in order to get the good players we have to let them pick the unis each week. Bama, Clemson, FSU, SoCal, Auburn, LSU, etc say hello.
I imagine the plan is wear the regular uniform 11 games and pull out the special helmet for 1. But, maybe that would make too much sense. I agree that I don't want to see different helmets every game

I'll bet nobody can name a single player who chose to come to SC because they could choose the uniform.
 
This will prove if people really have consistent opinions or just hate whatever's latest, because I know I've seen people say on here before Scholarship Leadership was their all-time favorite helmet
 
When zoomed in the stripe doesn’t look solid and the Gamecock definitely looks odd. I’d love to see us in the old school uniform, but if we are going to do it, make it the old school uniform…not a modernized version.

it's a very small image of a bird

almost impossible to identify from a distance

not exactly what one might call branding

reminiscent of the golden age of acc football

hoping we never see this 50 year old thing again

go cocks!

Nothing wrong with the JoMo combo jerseys in his time. The players like to pick the combination for each game, so let them.

I don't want to see different helmets nor different unis each game. We all complain that we need more traditions, other than 2001. Name a more recognizable, and easier to institute, "tradition" than uniform combo.

My ideal would be 1987 GBW combo for home games, and Stormtroopers for away games. Yes, we'd have 2 helmets, but it would be a home helmet and an away helmet.

Thanks for this graphic. One of the worst helmets was the black one in the first image, bottom left corner I believe the Holtz era.

The block C logo just doesnt look right on any color other than white without a white circle around it. Full stop. Would like to see a black helmet with the block C logo with the white circle.
 
Whatever it is, I don't think I like what it is very hard to see.

Beamer is a lot closer and it doesn't look like he knows if he likes it or not...
 
I liked our battle jerseys a few seasons back and wouldn't mind a variation of it in the future.

My Final Thoughts:

I do believe it is supposed to be a version of the 60’s throwback helmet, though updated. Why is Beamer doing this? We’re about to unveil the look we’ll go with by video. In that video, tradition, history, etc will be mentioned. It’ll have Beamer looking at a few helmets and weighing his options…like he was doing in the video. Ultimately he’ll settle on our “Black Magic” era uniforms.

That’s my prediction. You can take it to the bank.
