Nike has selected nine teams to wear their new Nike Hyper Elite Platinum uniforms at various games during the season.  Kentucky is one of the teams selected, along with Arizona, Baylor (women’s), Duke, Florida, Syracuse, Connecticut (men’s and women’s) and North Carolina.  All nine teams selected to wear the new uniforms have won national championships wearing Nike shoes and apparel in the past.  

The uniforms are designed for maximum performance.  The shorts have laser perforations in the side panels for increased breathability while featuring a lightweight woven design with new 4 way stretch technology. The hem is bonded on the shorts and the neckline of the jersey to enhance both comfort and style. The front of the jersey features a lightweight Nike Sphere fabric, while the back includes a cool new Nike Aerograph.

The new unis will be unleashed for selected rivalry games beginning in just a few days.  Kentucky will be sporting the uniforms on January 31st for their matchup with Tennessee.   I asked why Tennessee wouldn’t be wearing the new uniforms and I was told, “Because they don’t win championships and because if Jarnelle Stokes’ size 20 shoe was to get caught in his shorts they would morph into MC Hammer pants.”

We all know in 50 years that the shorts will hang so low that all basketball players will have to tuck there shorts into there stiped (Jack Cooley) socks.
