re: Arkansas State Football team forced to remove Christian crosses from helmets

True, but what if the helmet stickers were purchased by a team member's parents? Or were purchased by a private entity which donated them to the football program?

Are the players not allowed to memorialize a teammate as they see fit if the helmet stickers were not purchased by the university?

It's tricky with a public institution. Even if they were purchased with donations, those donations could have been used to pay for things that tax money paid for. Also, without the tax funding helping to establish the university, they would have never received those donations.
