Yesterday in the UNLV game there was a player wearing a very visible gray UnderArmour (read skin tight) sleeveless shirt under his read jersey. He played the entire game this way. Is the rule different for under shirts without sleeves or for this style shirt?


Am I correct?
The rule regarding the color of the undershirt is the same as Fed....it must match the predominant color of the jersey. I saw it too and was surprised he was not made to remove it. I doubt something like that would cause officials not to advance, but the next crew is gonna look like the bad cop to the team when they ask him to remove it......"Well they let me wear it last time"
My assumption was that because there was no T called for removing the jersey the rule is different and that the tight sleeveless shirt was legal. I am assuming this because I doubt officials of that caliber would risk future tournament assignments by ignoring something so obvious.
