Thanks, that's an interesting video. It appears to be a mostly fairly modern collection; I only saw a few that I couldn't recognize:

00:46 - in the most distant row, the dark helmet left of center between the yellow "Augie" (Augustana, IL) helmet and the white "M" helmet (Mercyhurst?)

1:12 - there's a white Oklahoma State 'oSu' helmet near the center; what's the blue helmet directly above it?

1:20 - third row from the top, between Wake Forest and Iowa State, is that the 1970s Fresno State helmet of which I've never found a clear color photograph?

1:24 - I don't recognize the white helmet near center with the number 67 on the back and the eagle-looking logo on the sides; also the yellow helmet below that one with what looks like a 'bulldog' face logo

2:01 - white helmet with script 'Cougars' logo

I suppose we only see a fraction of the collection in the video, though.

And did I understand him correctly - many of the helmets were given to him?

0:46 Thats the Abilene Christian University helmet from 2001-2012 (Already in the site)

1:12 Maybe San Jose State? Wouldn't know what year but it could be one that was never reported (There's a better view of it in the pictures)
