Tuesday afternoon Cardinal news and notes

—The 2023 ACC tournament is headed back to the Greensboro Coliseum. The tournament will be in D.C. next season and Brooklyn in 2022.

—The adidas “adizero” uniforms that Louisville wore while winning the 2013 national title top the Athletic’s list of the worst uniforms in college basketball history.

Baylor, Cincinnati, Louisville, Kansas, Notre Dame and UCLA were the victims forced to wear this eye-damaging attire. Louisville and UCLA even got sleeves with pointless stripes on them. Some schools came out better than others. Notre Dame’s road jerseys were an affront to the color green. Cincinnati’s shorts and jerseys didn’t seem to match. But the worst was saved for Kansas and UCLA. Remember how we said earlier that camo and blue don’t mix in any possible way? Now try blue and whatever pattern Adidas cooked up in its evil laboratory.

The uniforms were meant to be worn throughout the postseason, but Kansas ditched them after their first game of the Big 12 tournament.

“Kansas is very traditional,” former Jayhawks big man Jeff Withey says. “So when we first got them, we were shocked that we were going to wear them.”

When asked if there was any discussion about using them in the NCAA Tournament, Withey says, “No. Definitely not.”

Withey, who’s now playing professionally in Israel, describes the material of the bottoms “as more like board shorts.” The upshot is that he still breaks them out. “They’re my swim trunks,” he says.

Louisville won the national title in the adizeros. But since the Cardinals were the No. 1 seed, they got to keep the less-offensive white versions on throughout the postseason. Their championship was later vacated by the NCAA. Fashion justice?

Most of Louisville’s players praised the jerseys throughout that ’13 run. To each his own. Former Kansas guard Travis Releford still has his adizero home and away shorts and wears them on occasion.

“They’re different,” he says, “and a lot of people like different.”

Still, everyone has an opinion on which college basketball uniforms are beauties and which ones are beastly.

“Baylor’s got the worst jerseys,” Releford says. “Those neon ones. Oh my goodness. It hurts to watch them in those.”

Kentucky’s ‘96 denim uniforms were No. 2, and the horrific adidas postseason cummerbund look from 2015 was No. 3.
