The Big Ten is slated to begin its 2020 football schedule this week. But when one team takes to the field, theyll be sporting a black helmet logo to show solidarity with the fight for social change.
On Thursday, the Illinois football team announced that their players will be wearing a black Block I decal on their helmets for their season-opener against Wisconsin tomorrow. The move is the result of an initiative from the student-athletes in support of advocating for social change.

I guess the Illini need to do something to get some press.

Gee, when I was in Jr. High, my football team’s helmets were solid white. I had no idea what were exploited to promote.

So college ball follows the negro felon league in going down the drain.
LOTS of alumnae will pull their donations. It has already happened at some large colleges/universities that tried to go woke with their sports teams.

The MSU - U-M game next week may be moved from Ann Arbor to East Lansing due to Ann Arbor’s emergency STay-At-Home order for the U-M campus.

Great, now we have college football teams supporting BlackBloc/Antifa terrorists.

Dressing in black is typical for a funeral. Appropriate, it would appear.

Okay. Here’s a “social change” for you — pull the plug on college sports.

I was so looking forward to the OSU game Saturday. If I see just one black helmet, I'll turn it off.

I am assuming you are referring to THE Ohio State University. I know they have alternative black helmets.

Uh huh. This past weekend Syracuse hosted little ol' Liberty University at the Carrier Dome. Syracuse players wore jerseys that said Black Lives Matter and Equality where their names would normally have been across the back shoulders. All real leftist/PC stuff.
Little ol' Liberty kicked their asses 38-21. The first time LU has ever beaten an ACC team. It did my heart good.
