Thanks_Tom RR

Looks good to me, but I guess they are keeping the modern baggy shorts.

The Lakers wore throwbacks with short shorts a few years ago, and then switched to normal shorts after halftime. I think staying away from the short shorts is a good idea:

Didn't catch this in the pic above:

Nebraska Huskers@Huskers 11m

Terran Petteway will wear 44 in place of 5 on Saturday for #Huskers Legends Weekend. (via @RandyYorkNSider) http://huskernsider.tumblr.com/post/78028344218/petteway-will-honor-fallen-husker-from-80s

Nebraska basketball fans remember Dave Hoppen and Brian Carr, Eric Williams and Stan Cloudy, Bill Jackman and Anthony White. They remember Curtis Moore and more players who competed on NIT teams in 1983-84 and 1984-85. One name, however, will emerge Saturday from that same fleet of players when Nebraska sophomore Terran Petteway pays a special tribute to the memory of Ronnie Smith, a 6-foot-10 center from Galveston, Texas, by way of Henderson County Junior College in Athens, Texas.
The Huskers unveiled throwback uniforms for Legends Weekend that will honor the 1911-12 unbeaten Husker team that won the Missouri Valley Conference with an 8-0 record. Petteway is switching from his usual No. 5 to No. 44 to pay homage to Smith, who was killed as a law enforcement officer on Dec. 17, 2011, while responding to a fight call.

Smith played for Moe Iba at Nebraska on two teams that qualified for the National Invitation Tournament. The ’83-84 Husker team beat Creighton in Omaha in the NIT, then lost to Xavier, 58-57, in a game I remember covering in Cincinnati because Nebraska basketball fans were still mourning the death of Jack Moore, the Huskers’ legendary guard.

Not a fan simply because they're too plain. I generally don't like when teams throwback to unis that don't fit the modern style.
