New College level jackets?

I was my first college game in over 1½ years and almost didn't realize the officials were at the game because they had on new (to me) black jackets with white stripes where the sleeves meet the shoulders.

Is this the new thing for college officials now? Looked kinda sharp to me.

Yes those jackets are new and yes they are ugly.

I wore mine for the first time tonight. Besides someone making more money, I would just like to know why they had to change in the first place.

Rut:

What can I say since I spent 3 straight days after I got off work at a college soccer tournament. Makes me realize why I prefer indoor sports in the fall months.

I wasn't expecting to do any college games this year until a local school contacted me about filling in temporarily while thry try to find a new stat intern. Heck, I'm stil trying to get used to the new NCAA rule and stat changes.

My Travelpro roller bag looked over stuffed because this years jacket takes up twice as much room more than last years. I store mine in a plastic bag now because I saw my partners white stripes got really dirty after 2 games.
