Is the rule the same?
I just watched another TV show that had college level players in a drama (CSI). I noticed again that a lot of the jersey numbers wouldn't be allowed in NF games - one digit numbers from 6 through 9 and two digit numbers where either one of those numbers wouldn't be allowed.
Is the rule different in college level and those numbers are allowed? |

It's fairly rare to see a TV show get it right, unless the writers are college basketball fans or something.

The rule for uniform numbers is the same in high school and college. 00 and 0 are allowed, but not both. Also, only digits from 0 to 5 are allowed, so CSI did a lazy job with that plot. The only basketball rule sets where digits 6 and up are allowed are NBA (2 hands used for numbers greater than 5) and FIBA (2 hands for numbers greater than 5, and reversing the hands to show that a given digit is in the tens place).

in FIBA for numbers 11-15 are shown with your right hand in a clenched fist and your left hand showing the first digit. example left index finger and right closed fist is 11- different than the North American rule sets that use 2 handed reporting. |
