Alabama basketball jerseys rank No. 1 in the country in 2024

Alabama’s brand new white basketball uniforms ranked No. 1 in the country by Uniswag

Listen, I get that correlation does not mean causation, however, I am certain that there is a direct correlation between Alabama Crimson Tide basketball unveiling a new uniform and going on the program’s first-ever Final Four run. The Tide faithful have been singing the praises of the uniform’s beauty since it was unveiled during the middle of the season, but their feelings were officially validated as Uniswag voted it as the Uniform of the Year in College Basketball.

The uniforms are just a small symbol of the upgrades that are coming to Tide Hoops as a result of head coach Nate Oats’s unprecedented success.

Oats and the Crimson Tide agreed to a new deal shortly ahead of March Madness keeping him in Tuscaloosa for the foreseeable future with one of the biggest buyouts in the sport.

I would imagine that on top of an increase in pay and further job security, Oats was given assurances regarding the resources that would be given to him in the coming years. As one of the top five coaches in college basketball, the Tide did all the right things by locking him up sooner rather than later. Especially with things like the Kentucky job opening up less than a month later.

Michigan State 1995-2000 throwback jersey named Uniswag Basketball Uniform of the Year

Michigan State’s 1995-2000 throwback basketball jerseys have been named the Uniswag Basketball Uniform of the Year.

In the absence of a real NCAA championship this year, this is a fun consolation prize. Michigan State brought back their old uniforms (originally made by Reebok, now Nike) from 1995-2000 this past season, and they were named the Uniswag Basketball Uniform of the Year.

There is a lot of nostalgia wrapped into these jerseys and, like many jerseys from the 90s, they have aged tremendously well as that era’s aesthetic has permeated through our modern culture. Michigan State won a national championship in these uniforms, and looked like they were poised to make another run at a title with them again, so it’s nice to see them be recognized for their greatness.

It should be noted that these jerseys came in third when we ranked the Greatest Jerseys of All-Time for the basketball program.
