Starting tomorrow, Florida, Syracuse, Arizona and Ohio State will wear "fitted" spandex jerseys in their conference tournaments. The shorts will be longer and baggier than the usual shorts, rather than also "form-" fitting, and thus white male sexual security will remain intact.
Here is a picture from CNNSI of the OSU jersey:
This won't catch on. Many cheap fouls have been earned, and will continue to be earned, by defenders getting their hand caught in the jersey of the player they are covering. With form-fitting jerseys not only will this not happen, but it will also be more difficult to see contact with the jersey-wearing shooter. It's the polar opposite of Iverson's brilliant "white sleeve" campaign, shown below. (Most people fouling AI are darker than glacial snow, so their fouling hands show up very well making contact with a Dunleavy-white sleeve.)
Unfortunately, FSU alum Nigel "Big Jelly" Dixon, was unavailable for comment.
