I'm having a little trouble understanding how this type of T improves the game.
Any feedback is appreciated...

I think the rule is to just bring some consistency in. What does it mean that both teams "agree"? What if the home team was under the impression that there was agreement, but the visiting team was not and you have two teams that show up wearing red? This just gives you a fall back, no matter what this is what you wear and then we never have a problem. It's not like they just sprung this on anyone, how long has it been 4 years that they have been saying that this is coming? The T I suppose is the only real way to get schools to respond....I'm guessing this was proably an issue at some point or they wouldn't have created the rule...
