TAMPA, OCT. 29, 2019 – Through a strong partnership with Schutt Sports, the Bulls are blazing a high-tech trail that will allow football players around the country to wear helmets that fit as perfectly as possible.
Starting last week, the Bulls became the first program in the nation to start using Schutt's new UR1 model, which is specifically fitted to meet the unique size needs of individuals through pressure mapping.
"Because the relationship, we're able to be the first ones to do it and to have 17 players in it right away, that's huge," said Jeremy Lees, USF's Assistant Director of Athletics for Equipment Operations.
