Where is the 1992 version of Lincoln High School? Travesty I tell you.

Um I think the actual colors are not going to change. What is up in the air for the future it sounds like it is only going to be the logo and the design of the uniforms.

Here's our current helmet. Vote for # 6 if you like this combination the best.

You know what would be great???? Another thread about Colors and somehow correlate that with EIU.

1982?!

Why 1982?!

I love Arizone State's color scheme, just slap our current ISU logo on there and those are looking good son!

Excellent poll.

I'm not wild about any of these choices either. I don't think anyone else is either because I've never see a poll so evenly split 6 ways. I really like the gold helmet, but I also like the current cyclone logo.

I would like to someone who knows how to use PaintShop do a 1967 Gold helmet only with the current Cyclone logo.

I went with USC, before I read the other posts. I really like our helmet now. I would like to see a little mixup of the jersey/pants combination. I'm not completely sold on the red and red.

I wanted to pick one with a cardinal background and a white/yellow emblem. ISU's 1981-1982 helmet is the only one in ISU's history with that color combination.

My idea was to see what color combination people preferred. With around 100 votes cast, it seems that people are very split on this issue. Personally, I prefer Florida State's helmet (with the gold background), but it looks like there are just as many fans who like the Arizona State helmet (with the yellow background). I wanted to see if there was a significant majority who prefer gold over yellow, but clearly that is not the case. As a result, my hopes that ISU will switch back to its 1960s shade of gold (i.e. Florida State or Notre Dame gold) and away from Pantone 130c gold (ISU's current yellow color) have been dealt a severe blow.

I now think it comes down to one of the following 3 color combinations. The first 2 pictures are courtesy of Nedrick. Should we post these 3 pictures as part of a new poll?
