gray uniforms

[Jake]

Apparently a memo went out this year for teams that have nothing to do with gray, to wear gray uniforms. Fucking Penn State is wearing them today. Purdue has them, and I've seen several other teams wearing them this season.

Previously the only other school I've seen wear them regularly was Georgetown, who has been wearing gray since the mid-80s.

I like the lack of capitalization in this thread title.

UNLV?

New Mexico?

Washington State? (not 100% about that)

That's all I can come up with right now.

Yeah, let's make more of an effort to further destroy any team identity in college basketball. Pretty soon everyone's just going to be wearing white uniforms with a big Nike swoosh where the team name is.

Some teams, like Washington State, have legitimate reason to wear gray.

But I'll agree with Jake, these other teams wearing gray are just fucking stupid. How the fuck are you going to be a team called the ORANGE and wear a gray uniform. Makes perfect sense.

Yeah, but those aren't gray. They're Hyper Platinum. HUGE difference.

Fuck you guys. I bet the 7-year olds who stitched these think they're awesome.

Those teams all have gray as part of their school colors. Penn State and Purdue, on the other hand, do not.

I didn't even know about those and haven't seen them.

I'm talking about basic gray. Along with Penn State and Purdue, VCU has them, too. None of those teams have gray as part of their color scheme.

I've seen others, too, but not recalling them all off hand. Wichita State comes to mind, along with Texas and Oklahoma State.

Wazoo's colors are red and gray as are UNLV's. New Mexico's colors are red and silver.

I seem to remember them doing this around the time when Greg Oden and company were in the S&G. Syracuse was one of them with gray uni's then too, shocking.
