Question about helmet stickers
Do they have a choice whether to put the stickers on? I would have to think that he has earned atleast a few? Maybe not......I thought he played a great game so maybe next week they'll appear! Thoughts?
Go blue!

It's an aesthetic thing. For as sleek as the winged helmet is, a bunch of stickers only clutters it up and detracts from the streamlined look.

Helmet stickers are fantastic. Bo introduced them and I'll gladly take back a tradition that Bo started.
Granted, the stickers this year are either too big or too spaced out as the sides of the helmet are filling up too quickly.

From my experience around here, the older crowd likes the stickers much more than the younger crowd (I'm 25). I don't eat much sliced bread, though.

I feel the very same way!
Harbaugh was obviously motivated by them as a player, and wants his team to have the same motivation. It ain't broke. Don't fix it.

I love the stickers, especially our design (as you might have guessed). But we should make them smaller or else tighten up the criteria for getting them.

I liked the mock-up thin block M that was shared here previously.
With the current design, to try and clean things up I would say have an inverse (Blue background) that you trade 10 Maize for, or whatever) Then you keep the number of bright stickers to a maximum of 9 and having a helmet full of the Blue stickers would be quite the achievement.

My wife does not interfere with my Michigan habit, but she is not an active CFB fan. While watching the game yesterday, she came into the room and watched for a couple of minutes.
It must have been the first time she's done that in a while because she said "Eeew. Helmet stickers on Michigan's helmets? They look awful. Do you all think you are Ohio State?"
I explained that our new coach liked them because that's how they looked when he was a kid. And since he has us winning again, as long as he likes them, we're going to have them.
She wasn't buying it and said they still look awful, like a high school helmet.
So FWIW, there's a viewpoint from a disinterested observer.

New expiramental ink for the stickers that only shows when spattered with the blood of our fallen opponents.

yesterday and noticed Speight already had stickers. Must have been earned for academics or practice performance, which is nice.

I think that Harbaugh himself hinted that the primary motivation for the return of the stickers was as another tangible aspect of the environment of competition that he fosters, and part of that is definitely team goals. From the tone of the interview, as I recall, if you "grade out" (his words) on something in a game or in practice (and in other situations), you get one.

stickers need to be of your avatar.

I think they should just give Peppers a yellow helmet and save time.

These helmet stickers are amazing. Lloyd should've never gotten rid of them.

Peppers' helmet will look like this by the B1G championship game:

If EVERYTHING is a competition to Harbuagh, then it stands to reason that he has more categories rewarded by a sticker than his predecessors
November 8th, 2015 at 3:18 PM ^
The new guy has no clue how to place the stickers. They are not supposed to go inside the stripes.
November 8th, 2015 at 4:09 PM ^

No you don't. They were never put down the middle of the helmet. After the sides were full that was it.
The new equipment staff is spacing these things out completely wrong and totally inconsistently. When you look at Peppers' helmet, it's like a 5 year old just started putting them wherever they wanted.

Are we really going to bitch about the placement of fucking stickers? Jim can put pictures of dicks on the helmet and I wouldn't give 2 shits because he's Jim Harbaugh. It's like bitching at Bo because he built an indoor practice facility in the midwest and no other school was doing it or Michigan didn't do it before. THEY'RE STICKERS and we're winning games.
November 8th, 2015 at 2:45 PM ^
Now that Peppers and others have crossed the Rubicon by putting stickers between the stripes, what happens when they fill that space? Stickers on the stripes? Stickers on the wings? The mind revolts at the thought.

breaks two helmets a game. Dude had a nice pancake near the South end zone that had the guy wanting to get up and fight.

I wonder what kind of reward a player will get for being the first to completely fill all available helmet real estate with stickers. Maybe there's some kind of "club" for those who fill their helmets kind of like the Ball Hawk sweatshirts Durking gives for intereceptions. It just feels like there has to be something because...
