[QUOTE="Jean-Baptiste Rochambeau, post: 323757, member: 1017"] I don't know if this is fact or not, but football guru Chris Landry just said on the radio that because safer helmets are so expensive, teams like Oregon that have eight or ten uniform combinations, only have one "best helmet" for each player. So when they switch to another ensemble that calls for a different helmet, the team is playing with cheaper, inferior, not as safe helmets. He was also saying that college players, because they lack the clout of a NFLPA are more at risk and will remain at risk. Is it likely that a school would ask the players to play in a less safe helmet, if a safer helmet was available? He was quick to point out that it is all relative, as there is not a really safe helmet yet, but there are better ones. [/QUOTE]
