I wouldnt really want them to wear the black jerseys. I would hate it much more to do the Georgia thing for black with football jerseys. I love the traditional orange and white.

Call BS all you want, but you clearly have never played or watched basketball. In high school and NCAA, the home team must wear the lightest color. In the NBA, with agreement from the opponent previously, the home team can wear the dark color, and the visiting can wear light.

Similar to the situation with UCLA vs USC in football this season where both teams wore dark colors and were fined and lost a timeout.

Who called the grammar police? An officer from the mechanics department has shown up to pass out citations. Everyone concentrate on every little keystroke and have your identification ready if you make a mistake.

Where does it say the home team can't wear a dark color if the away team wears their home jerseys?

The uniforms even have similarities to the NBA. In college basketball, it is required by rule that the home team wears their white or light-colored jerseys while the visiting team wears their darker jersey color. The NBA, like other professional sports leagues, lets the home team decide which uniform to wear, but with a few exceptions the home team has continued the tradition of the college game and wears white (or in the case of the Los Angeles Lakers for non-Sunday home games, gold) at home.

College basketball - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It is from wiki, but it is the first site that came up. It's been a rule from the NCAA forever.

This was dumb, if we do see the black uniforms (if they exist) it would be a road game, because everyone knows the home team wears white in college basketball.

Which brings up a question...why do basketball teams wear white at home? I've never understood it...wouldn't you want to play in your colors? Football I can buy sometimes with the hot weather thing, though I don't understand why teams like the Cowboys ALWAYS wear white at home (I know the story about the owner wanting people to see opposing jerseys and colors, but hey that was before every game was televised).

I would love it if UT could play all their home games in orange.
