Very interesting. Looks like LRS signed twice, once as #93, using his Oklahoma number instead of the #63 he wore as a Buc, and once as HOF95

 

Also, looks like this helmet belonged to a guy named Eddie, wonder who that was, and why he no longer wants it? Friend of Leavitt, perhaps?

I believe it is Lee Roy Selmon Jr who signed it.  He wore #93.  If you look closer at the signature its different.  The capital L is a big giveaway.  Also it looks like JR Reed signed it too (#32).  Great player.

That's what I was thinking.

 

EDIT: After checking out description, I noticed this:

 

"Thisis a unique collectible in MINT condition. This USF Bulls Football Helmet was a gift to my husband from USF Coach Jim Leavitt. During one of his experiences as the “Honorary Game Coach†he brought the helmet along to get signed by the team. All signatures are in black Sharpie marker.

Lee Roy Selmon was the USF Athletic Dept. Director at that time. His signature is on the top front of the helmet, where he signed his name and also “HOF-95, Go Bulls.â€

Lee Roy Selmon Jr. was playing on the USF Bulls Football Team at this time. Lee Roy Jr. also signed this helmet on the lower right side under the Bull logo. He signed his name and the number 93.

Coach Jim Leavitt signed the helmet in the front next to Lee Roy. There are a dozen other signatures from the USF players who were on the team approximately 2003- 2006. Coaches Tom Pagic, Rich Rachel, and Rich Kravitz signed the helmet. Some of the USF Bulls players who signed the helmet were: QB Marquel Blackwell #10,  Santiago Gramática #7, Emerson Morris #54 among others."

So, Eddie's wife is trying to sell his helmet. Suppose Eddie passed away?
