Greetings,

It is not a game worn helmet, we use Schutt helmets but not that style and #11 is retired number (Terry Baker).

A BIG thumbs up to OSU for caring enough to look into this and call a scam a scam!

The seller is re-selling the helmet and his Northwestern helmet is bogus as well.

I like the 'G' helmet. A youth helmet with NCAA sticker added.
