I love the idea of using the script R as our helmet logo somehow, if not the old spear. Maybe a gold R outlined in white on the Burgundy helmet, or some variation of that.

Oh and FSU's spear design debuted in 1976, 11 years after Washington first used theirs. I'm guessing FSU's was designed in the likeness of the old Redskins spear, but they tweaked a few things besides the shell color. (length of spear, jagged arrowhead as opposed to our straight arrowhead, thickness of spear, position of feathers)

I think Utah's helmet looks a lot like ours too.
