Staton14 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Posted September 6, 2013 Or, as a wild guess, we have a helmet stripe that looks like a closed zipper going from front to back. I was thinking something with a zipper too but I wasn't sure how they would incorporate it. I like that idea asctually. Quote
skip-zip Posted September 6, 2013 Report Posted September 6, 2013 Please, please, please, just don't give us that crap that Ken+ was wearing in the bowl game last year !! Quote
Buckzip Posted September 6, 2013 Report Posted September 6, 2013 You have to love the JMU response saying "new helmets wont help". lol I have to say that they are a pretty cocky and arrogant bunch for a little piss ant school. Really? Piss ant school... Quote
a-zip Posted September 6, 2013 Report Posted September 6, 2013 Not neccesarily related to this topic but why is it that our roster is not updated with new pictures and info on the players on gozips. Seems kind of bush league to me (even JMU has their stuff updated). Childish...........maybe but it has always bothered me. Quote
Zipgrad01 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Posted September 6, 2013 Really? Piss ant school... Sorry if I offended you..... how about "lower level school"? Is that better? Quote
legendofzippy Posted September 6, 2013 Report Posted September 6, 2013 Sorry if I offended you..... how about "lower level school"? Is that better? I'm sure UCF looks at us the same way. Quote

Zipmeister Posted September 6, 2013 Report Posted September 6, 2013 If our players actually showed up on the field looking like this it might be fairly intimidating. Quote
Dr Z Posted September 6, 2013 Report Posted September 6, 2013 I wonder if tomorrow's program offers any hints? Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted September 6, 2013 Report Posted September 6, 2013 Or the new dance team outfits? Quote
Buckzip Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 Sorry if I offended you..... how about "lower level school"? Is that better? You didn't and can't offend me. I just hope you realize the difference between lower level and piss ant. Quote
Zipmeister Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 Check out the new Miami helmets on Ohio Fox sports right now (as they are getting pounded by UK). Their new head gear looks like someone barfed all over them. I sure hope the new Zips helmets look nothing like these Quote

I sure hope the new Zips helmets look nothing like these It's meant to reflect what their fans are doing when they watch their football team. Why is Miami running plays out of the wishbone??? Quote
Staton14 Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 New gloves for the team today https://twitter.com/ZipsFB/status/376367533525180416 Quote
g-mann17 Posted September 7, 2013 Author Report Posted September 7, 2013 New Helmet interesting, not sure what i think about it yet. Quote
zestycoyote Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 New Helmet interesting, not sure what i think about it yet. I want to see what it looks like in person. I was hoping for a more matte look, which is hard to pull off with a gold base color. The zipper is kind of cool, though it doesn't look like a zipper immediately. The 'Zzzip Go the Zippers' text is incredibly stupid though. Quote
AKSportsFan Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 This is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. Okay, so we are the zips which is the nickname representing our mascot the kangaroo. SO now we are the Zips, Kangaroos, and Zippers? wow talk about identity crisis. This doesn't even bring up the fact that the design is flat out retarded. Quote
AKSportsFan Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 BTW, "Zzzip go the Zippers" are actually original lyrics in the fight song. Quote

Roo Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 Boring and ugly.. Was really hoping to see them update the color scheme or something special.. Quote
MDZip Posted September 7, 2013 Report Posted September 7, 2013 Actually though they look pretty good on TV. Quote
zestycoyote Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 BTW, "Zzzip go the Zippers" are actually original lyrics in the fight song. Doesn't really matter. No one can see the text but the players. What's the point? Quote
zippypitt Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 Wow, we just don't get it. If you are going to make a statement, then go big. This design doesn't do squat. Quote
