Nike came to their schools pushing for the girl's to wear sleeves on their arms that were not attached to the uniform. I think most of the school's shot that one down. Also, I hear the girl's are not real thrilled about the new Nike volleyball shoes. It's too bad that Nike doesn't take just a little more time and effort to get their ball, shoes and uniforms right. Yeah agree-shoes are really really important and I think it's a shame when girls have to wear shoes they're not comfortable with

sorry but after looking at this uniform - I think Nike's losing its edge - in volleyball anyway

penn states long sleeve ones last year were cool (all white, with a blue edging on the collar and wrist) and Stanfords 07 and 08 jerseys were cool...

I just hate when you have almost all the nike schools wearing jerseys that are identical except for the color... It looks like little kid rec soccer, where everybody has the exact same shirts except each team is a different color.

Not all schools wear nike...Nebraska and your Tennessee team wear Addidas, Hawaii wears Asics... Nike is really just for schools that are good at football, and NC State.

That is why he said "almost"...and I agree with his sentiments. I understand that there are so many teams that everyone can't have unique uniforms but I think there should be a few different options per company. Football and basketball can have originality, why not volleyball?

I would actually like to see Stanford wear uniforms similar to the NT's.

It's worse in long sleeves. In the Cal pic above - look at #11, #7 & #8. It looks like they have "flaps" under their arms.
I don't think these are the same as last year's long sleeve Nike shirts. - I checked this closer and this is not the same design as last year's. There are a lot of different cuts including the sleeve-style and the neckline. Last year had raglon sleeves, a solid color back and a square-V cut at the neck. This year has a regular sleeve cut with that horisontal color block across the shoulders front and back, a round neckline and those horrible stripes up the back. I also don't like the type face for the numbers. All in all not a good design IMO.

Before the 2007 season, the Stanford players chose to switch from short-sleeved white home and red and black road jerseys to long-sleeved white home and black road jerseys (with red jerseys as a seldom-used third option). Gabi Ailes wore contrasting short-sleeved jerseys her freshman season in 2007... the rules allowed the libero jersey to be a different style, not just a different color, back then. Not sure if they still do.
