Could Arizona State have another different football helmet in 2015?

While steadily improving the on-field product under head coach Todd Graham for the last three seasons, the Arizona State Sun Devils have also been at the forefront of college football fashion.
In 2014, the Devils wore eight (count them) different helmets in their 13 games — second-most among Pac-12 teams to only Oregon. (See our Pac-12 2014 helmet slideshow below.)
Did a recruit unveil another possible helmet during a recent trip to Tempe?
On Twitter, Chacho Ulloa, a prospect from Centennial High in Corona, Calif., snapped a photo of him wearing an ASU jersey and posing in front of a table full of Sun Devil helmets.

As you can see, there is an anthracite-colored helmet with a copper pitchfork logo and facemask on the table. That is not one of the many different helmets ASU has worn since changing their look in 2011.
Against Notre Dame last November, ASU wore special anthracite “Desert Fuel” uniforms, but accented them with white helmets and copper accessories.
Here’s a closer look at the helmet, courtesy of Chris Falconer on Twitter.

Ulloa, incidentally, has been offered a scholarship by Arizona State. He’s also received offers from Boise State, Oregon State, Stanford and Utah among others.
