What's also really interesting is that STX has partnered up with Schutt, and they also have a partnership with Nike. Why does that matter, well Schutt and Nike have people who are on the board of NOCSAE. To top it all off the recall was placed close to Black Friday, a day that most major lacrosse retailers would have a nice discount for someone to buy a new helmet.


I have smelled the same fish since the story broke. Which is why I continue to believe that any law suits forthcoming (particularly ones coming from the kid who used an old helmet in Wellington FL and was airlifted to the hospital) should be directed squarely at NOCSAE.

In a word, COLLUSION.
