Seems sensible to me.
Good point and it got me thinking(which isn't good usually)......

I went back to the 2004-05 rulebook in which this rule was originally initiated and read it a little deeper. In the COMMENTS ON THE 2004-05 RULES REVISIONS, you'll find the following statement--"The new rule only affects varsity uniforms; lower level programs may still continue to wear 'light-colored' uniforms as home jerseys." I would imagine that unless this concept has changed, it will be spelled out in the upcoming year's rule book, and also hopefully as a case play.

I went back and deleted my previous post in this thread as it was wrong/misleading.

Good catch, Frank.
