You should have said "UConn Women."

The men wore them.

Almost every athlete from a Nike-sponsored team has donned a T-shirt during the last two weeks bearing the catchphrase “Always Reppin’,” the company’s chosen slogan this March. Oklahoma players wore the T-shirts for their game against the Aggies, who are sponsored by Adidas.

I couldn't figure out what the hell they were for awhile. At first I thought they were something distributed by the tournament committee. Anyway, I agree, they were dumb.

This is nothing new. Nike and Adidas have been issuing these shirts to "their" teams for several years.

"Made in March" was Adidas version this year.

I don't recall if they ever worn them, but when I had looked at the UCONN website during the tournament, I believe it was after the 2nd round, but not positive, the website was advertising shirts that said "UCONN VS ALL" that I thought were pretty cool. I believe I saw some other Nike schools wearing a shirt similar to that, but I don't recall which one.

Here is the shirt I'm talking about.

And on a side note, while I was looking for the shirt I was looking at National Championship shirt designs, I think some of them are pretty cool too. Of all of them I'd say I like the one below the best though.

They were silly and I noticed UCONN never wore them...but it made it clear which schools were Nike schools...so I guess that's a win for Nike.

My daughter asked me what those shirts actually mean, and I could not, with any sort of confidence, provide an answer to her question.

Well, when Oklahoma loses by 40 plus points in the men's Final Four, I would be confused as to what "Always Reppin" meant to. Because if that effort is meant to be representing themselves or the school, they need to give those shirts back.
