    Pro: Looks like the strip was removed
    Con: It's not the State-T which has been on our helmets since 1968

    As I saw suggested on Twitter, maybe it would look better if the dawg was facing forward and not backward?

    Re: Football. @LATechFB to Wear Alternate Helmet Design for UTEP Game - latechsports.

    For immediate release...

    RUSTON - Louisiana Tech released a new helmet logo for use during the school's "Red-Out" game against UTEP this year. A source in the athletic department stated on condition of anonymity that "while the look was not too bad, the primary reason for the change was to mess with BB&B. Those internet guys have been getting riled up about helmets every off-season without any real substance, so we decided to troll the waters a little bit."

    An hour after the official release of the new design, Bulldog Barks & Bytes seems to be in a state of shock, but has most certainly swallowed the bait. Reports of laughter from the Wyly field house offices remain unconfirmed, but plausible.

    On the opposite side of the helmet, the logo will be facing forward.

    And let it be written, on this 29th day of July in the two-thousandth and fourteenth year of our Lord, the powers that be in the Athletics Department at Louisiana Tech University came down from the mountain with a blasphemous image for the people of BBB. The BBBers were not amused though, and thus began the great helmet logo riot of late summer 2014.

    Not to be confused with the Great Helmet Logo Riot of Early Summer 2013.

    If you think BBB is bad, you better check out the comments on facebook. Let's just say that this decal is not very popular.

    And to QNG's point, yes, it is lame that our SID is revealing a new decal while other schools are revealing new sets of uniforms from head to toe. It's better for stupid ideas like this be saved as gameday surprises.

    Also, I've hated that bulldog since before it was official, I actually had some input on the logo when it was being updated and that dog was an 11th hour addition that Mrs. Reneau loved based on a painting. I told Buskirk it was absolutely horrible and it shouldn't be associated with Tech ever, of course it was chosen...

    Edit: found the painting,



    This apparently is one of Mrs. Reneau's favorite paintings of Tech and was the basis for our logo, looks like his head is made from a bag of testicle skin, I hate it and the logo it inspired...

    Very small-time of us. This is what I expect UL-Monroe would do.
