Maryland Football's New Look Is Eerily Similar to Charm City Roller Girls All-Stars Roller Derby Team (Photos) Someone must have been on drugs to design Maryland football's new jerseys and helmets, right? That, or said designer simply attended a Charm City Roller Girls All-Stars roller derby event within the last three years.

According to the Baltimore Sun, members of the roller derby team are a bit agitated at the Terpians' "new" look.

Not because they're heinous, but because it's their look and has been their look for three years now, according to members of the team.

"They’re not identical, but they’re shockingly similar," said Hillary "Rosie the Rioter" Rosensteel, the team’s captain.

Rosie the Rider claims that Ray Baranowski, who’s married to player Holly "GoHardley" Baranowski designed them, and says that he "developed it and hand-painted them.

"The consensus is their new helmets are very much like the design we developed," Rosensteel added. "We were surprised about the new design that Terps are wearing because it’s so similar to our helmets that we’ve been wearing for a good three years."

Baltimore-based Under Armour designed the Terps' new look that features a "custom Maryland flag print," as said in a press release from the company said last week.
