Monroe College will play its first season of football in 2012. No helmet design information has yet been received.

Arkansas Baptist began using a new helmet logo at some unknown point in 2010 (but at least by the game against Kilgore). The new logo appears to be the letters "ABC" with something (probably a buffalo) beneath the letters (photo below). I would appreciate a better photograph, a copy of the helmet logo, and information about when this design was first used.

*see note 1 below

*1 During four games in 2011 (September 1 vs Mississippi Gulf Coast, September 8 at Hinds, September 22 vs Itawamba, and October 27 at Holmes) EMCC wore black helmets with a "skull and crossbones" logo on the sides. While I could locate no specific information as to why this was done it was almost certainly a tribute to William "Bull Cyclone" Sullivan, who was head coach at East Mississippi Junior College through most of the 1950s and 1960s. In 1984 Sports Illustrated published a lengthy cover story about Sullivan, who had "skull and crossbones" painted onto his players' helmets during at least part of his career.

During at least one early-season game in 2010 (August 29 vs Hutchinson) Kilgore used a new logo consisting of the letters "KC" in front of a silver star with blue outline (photo below). All photos that I have seen from subsequent games in 2010 show the team returning to the blue star logo that the team had used in 2009 and earlier.
