Guardian Helmet Caps - Do We Use Them?

[Deleted member 23667]

And if not why? I've seen a lot of programs roll these out the past few years. Even the NFL is using them now, including the Phins.

If our problem is tackling hard, especially at practice, then this would theoretically help us by offering additional protection for the players and allowing them to practice and tackle harder. Manny has added a ton of modern bells and whistles to the program, but this is one modernization he may have overlooked.

He’s working on a version with bling.

But seriously, good question.

We don't, as someone who had probably 7 concussions between HS and college I really wish we did. I know the reasoning then was it voided the helmet manufacturer's warranty, but they're pretty widely adopted now.
