Every time they come out for layup lines, I think to myself, "What a bunch of Christmas clowns". It's their tradition, they're very successful, so they keep wearing them.
The picture to me is not that relevant. I only referenced it because you posted it, but it as not a discussion point. Because I do not see those shorts as the issue. I see someone wearing red or someone wearing white if those shorts were on the same team as complying. And I bet each state will have its own interpretation anyway. If the NF does not make it clear what is illegal, then that is what the states do.

Again, I doubt this will even be an issue in my world because at the varsity level I do not see anyone stopping a JV kid from playing because the pants were a different color as the other pants but share the same basic color of their school or teammates.

Peace
