New Adidas tourney jerseys?

I didn't like the all-orange from earlier in the year. I think it's dumb to use orange lettering and numbering on an orange jersey. They looked like the NBA's Christmas uniforms.

They were the same shade of orange in person. The different materials made them appear different under certain lights.

I liked them, but they're not legal for postseason play, when the NCAA's uniform guidelines are enforced.

All Adidas schools had the option to get these, but not all chose to do so. The men's basketball team will wear the normal uniforms in the postseason.

The Lady Vols are scheduled to have an alternate for the postseason.

I thought they should've outlined the names like they did the numbers.

It's called a monochromatic color scheme. They have to be varying shades to differentiate the numbers and lettering from the jersey material. Otherwise, it would all blend in together and be completely washed out. Like DeerPark said, I imagine the colors were actually closer to the same, but done on materials with different reflective properties to make them appear to be more different. I really liked those unis.

As for these sleeved, Euro-trash get-ups, leave them to the Serbian B-leagues.

Adidas can keep the neon crap too - I still remember those hideous Louisville jerseys last season

I really wish this uniform junk were out of the bball forum. Damn football fans coming here and getting bent out of shape about jerseys that don't exist.

Excactly. Other schools have worn the same style and theirs were hard to make out also. Do like the look though.

Addidas need to do something to keep up with the NIKE one, with outines on the back. Those are pretty sweet.
