The Warriors are debuting this new style of jerseys (in the NBA at least) on Feb. 22.

A couple of mens NCAA teams have done this before.

Evansville used to wear sleeves for whatever reason, but probably don't any longer.

Yep, Evansville is it, I knew it was somewhere out there, Creighton kept popping up in my head but i didn't think that was right - good find!

The internet says they wore sleeves from 86-02. No explanation why the did it or why they stopped.

I think they first started wearing the sleeved jerseys in the 40's through 1977. All but one member of the 77-78 team were killed in a plane crash. The surviving member of the team was hit by a drunk driver 2 weeks after the plane crash and died as well.
