Apparently, if either of you aren't wearing shirts with byron collars, you are officially out of uniform!

That's pretty darn funny, JR. I don't even have an IAABO handbook. Guess I'll have to turn in my patches. Black pants and V-neck shirt. I'm so ashamed :o

Obviously, IAABO needs to update that part of their handbook. I'm surprised that whoever edits the book missed something as obvious as that.

Hmmm, I thought that IAABO didn't make rules. I thought they only taught and published approved NFHS rules and interpretations. Interesting.

That's correct. Did someone say otherwise? :confused:

Au contraire. Per my dictionary, collar is defined as:

Quote:

the band of a garment round the neck
A collar, therefore, doesn't have to be a dress shirt-like collar. Even the top of a T-shirt will do.
