Comments
This is a new conference which will operate for the first time in 2012. Two additional schools - Berry College (Mount Berry, GA) and Hendrix College (Conway, AR) - will play their first seasons of football in 2013 as members of this conference.
Rhodes was using a new helmet design in 2011 (shown above).

Some earlier Rhodes helmets have been described as follows: 1992: red helmets with white facemasks and a black "paw print" logo outlined in white; 1993 - 1995: red helmets with white facemasks, one white stripe, and a white "paw print" logo. I would appreciate photographs of any of these.
