NCAA: No slogans on jerseys

[WestWYOPoke]

NCAA ruled that no schools, except the service academies, can put slogans on their jerseys. So even if we weren't retiring them, the camo jerseys (or at least the nameplates) wouldn't be allowed anymore anyway.

Interesting. I think the NCAA has bigger issues to worry about - and never saw the harm.

I don't believe that's 100% accurate.

Per the NCAA, jerseys may contain only a player's name, the school name, the NCAA logo, sleeve stripes, an American flag, a state flag or logo for a school, conference, mascot, postseason game, memorial or the military. Exceptions have been made only for service academies and other military-related alternate uniforms.

I'm sure that our Camo uniforms are military-related alternate uniforms.

I believe Vanderbilt was penalized for wearing slogans on their Jersey's in their game against Temple.
