I'm fine with it either way. That is why we allowed it we though you could easily make the case that it is legal.

I like the rule change to predominant color. I would prefer to see the rule that predominant color is the only allowed option for all apparel.

Sounds good, but that would force players to have two sets of fashion accessories, one set for home, and another set for the road, which would double the cost to teams, players, or parents. Right now they only have to purchase two different undershirts.

I don't think that is a valid complaint. Since these are items not required and they are choosing to spend the extra money it would be hard for them to complain about buying two sets when they are not required to buy any.

I agree that it may not be a valid complaint, but I do believe that this is the reason that the NFHS writes rules that allow a few color options.

Is it an oxymoron to use the word "reason" and "NFHS" in the same sentence?

…and they want to let kids wear the stuff and they just don't make them in every color...

I would hazard a guess that one could find these accessories in every major uniform color. Perhaps a different shade but still the same color.
