What rule set specificly says "tucking uniforms in"? Fed and Utrip speak of wearing uniforms/equipment as designed by the manufacture. Has anyone ever asked the manufactuers how they designed it? I see coaches every game wearing matching polo shirts and some have them out and others have them in ( I know thats not really a "uniform" for this discussion).
I may be wrong but I've always felt this rule was a carry over from the times when most or all womens/youth teams wore the tradtional short sleeve, button up the front shirts that MLB wears. A few teams still do (certainly at the college level) and those should be in. But the times have changed. If the UIC insists then I'll do what they say but otherwise let commen sense be the guide.
