Everything is elite in Tennessee.
Elite program.
Elite talent.
Elite recruiting.
Elite jumbotron.

Wow. Impressive.

Hope Danny remembered to use his Food City ValuCard when he paid for that.

Off subjects, but how often do the team get unis?

Off subjects, but how often do the team get unis?

Not sure what you mean. Do you mean if they get new practice unis every day, or just the same ones washed each day?

Or do you mean newly designed game unis?

Newly designed game unis for the season.

Newly designed game unis for the season.

FWIW, I went back in time ("and boy is my DeLorean tired!") to see previous uni timing, and found the 2022 announcement concerning Summitt Blue unis for Lady Vols basketball was released on August 11 of '22.

I don't know if that represents a usual timing for such things. Early August may just be when the majority of Tennessee fans are paying close attention to all things Vols. Or the timing could have had something to do with the manufacturer's marketing dept. or maybe even shipping and product availability.

They get new actual uniforms every year. The designs are re-done every 4-5 years. Tennessee is due to have a redesign this season. May not see many changes.

I only was involved once in 1975 with other volunteers and in the washing of uniforms and organizing them for a coming game. wow almost 50 years!

when Shannon Bobbitt transferred from a community college in 2007 there was a story I believe about her not turning in her socks because she did not expect them to be replaced.

And it is interesting to view old team photos to see what was IN on a particular year on the length of the uniforms.

plus today the individual asking the question uses for me an unknown abbreviation Unis? lots of changes over my lifetime

Secret Basketball Game of 1944 - North Carolina History

During the Jim Crow era, African American college teams were barred from the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and the National Invitational Tournament (NIT).

UT has played a closed scrimmage every year since they were allowed to begin, I believe in 2019. Did not play one last year, they were supposed to play UNC in Asheville, but the hurricane damage cancelled it. Guessing they just moved it to this year.
