McCall Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Looks like SOD. Did Memphis switch BACK to Nike? That appears to be the same numeral font used by Michigan State. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it helps recruiting, but I wouldn't see how much.Actually, if you're Elite, you're probably more likely to get one of Nike's new, wacky, uniform designs. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at Nike's Elite teams: most of them have great uniforms (Duke, UNC, Florida, and Georgetown come to mind).

You're "Elite" if you're a Nike school and have been to the Final Four. So George Mason is Elite. Funny, huh?And my "wacky" comment was in reference to SOD schools. The first three -- Syracuse, OSU, and Arizona -- are all Elite schools. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tBBP Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 On the backs of most SOD jerseys are two little colored inserts. I think the Nike Elite schools get silver inserts; not sure about the "non-elite" schools. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John in KY Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I guess. You're "Elite" if you're a Nike school and have been to the Final Four. So George Mason is Elite. Funny, huh?And my "wacky" comment was in reference to SOD schools. The first three -- Syracuse, OSU, and Arizona -- are all Elite schools.I thought "Nike Elite" was only for the schools who have all-sports deals with Nike. George Mason does it the old-fashioned way - they just buy their basketball uniforms from Nike, so I thought they weren't included in the "Nike Elite" as I don't remember them having the "Elite seal" on their uniforms the last two seasons. However, I could be wrong; I haven't really seen a George Mason game since their Final Four run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I'll happily defer to someone who has a solid explanation, but I always thought "Elite" was predicated by being a Final Four team (and a Nike school at the time, but apparently not). And, I will also say that I don't hate SOD, especially considering it's been toned down dramatically since the initial photos came out. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
