Just for the record I don’t like this idea but when a client says what can you do with this list of ideas you try and make it look the best you can.

April 22, 2014 marked the 10 year anniversary of the death of Pat Tillman. The act of patriotism that Tillman showed leaving his NFL career to become an Army Ranger is something that no one should ever forget. Tillman should have a statue at every NFL stadium as far as I am concerned.
I am guessing that for the 10 year anniversary of Tillman’s death the Arizona Cardinals and Arizona State would both have some kind of helmet decal honoring this anniversary. I personally dislike the way that sports teams try to honor a fallen teammate or owner. The traditional logo/sticker is a black circle with the persons number or initials inside the circle in white. I would like to a honor logo/sticker that has a little more thought put into it. My thought is that if someone is important enough to honor shouldn’t we do something more fitting of that honor?
Below are some ideas I had for a logo. I wanted to have all 3 badges Cardinals, ASU, & Army Rangers plus the 10 and Tillman in the logo. My fav is the first. I really like the idea of using the uniform name badge on this logo. I played around with a couple different versions of the 10 and added some yellow for ASU in a couple.
I really think that all NFL teams should wear the sticker on their helmet the week ASU and the Cards wear it as the main logo. All season would be better but I don’t know if you can get that to happen.
I would also like to see all of the service academies wear this sticker on their helmet too.
If the Cardinals, ASU, any NFL team, any service school, or any school for that matter wants to use my logo creation they can free of charge just contact.
Let the NFL & the Cardinals know you want this to happen. Stop tweeting out cat videos and retweet this.
@CharlesSollars @AZCardinals that would be a sweet helmet, only problem is, the NFL has final say on that stuff. I'm in, what can I do?

I also would like to see a weekend where both the Arizona Cardinals and Arizona State wear a full sized honor decal on one side of the helmet and a digital camo version of the team logo on the other.

I did these Oregon State logos and helmet concepts back when Nike brought out the new uniforms. I didn’t like the shape of the new logo because the Beaver looked like it had duck feathers. I also was not a fan of the helmets so here are my tweaks from back then
You can see all of the concepts on my flickr page below are the highlights
In back to back days Arizona State has rolled out new helmets that look blah. Both helmets look like someone had an ok idea, then someone else ran and threw it in photoshop, then someone else made it. I like fast but the only one little issue is that the helmets they spent all of that money to make should have never left the laptop that they were created on. These helmets should have been a starting point for an idea not the end point for production. Bravo Nike you have done it again rushed a bad design to market because everyone will stop and all OMG that is great becky look at that helmet because you have trained the public not to question you. So, warning all NCAA schools, NIKE, Adidas, Under Armour, Russell, etc… pick up the phone and call me before you go drop how every many grand on a lid.

I saw this tweet from The Dahlelama
I really liked Temple’s helmets today. A topo line helmet would look awesome. pic.twitter.com/lFIZnjDFT2

I really like the idea but my thought was what if you took it even further down the rabbit hole so I did thees real quick.
