As fans and students are encouraged to dress in 1950's attire next Tuesday night when USF plays San Francisco State in Kezar Pavilion, USF's players will also get into the spirit of event by wearing throwback uniforms complete with short-shorts, similar to the ones the great Dons teams if the 50's wore in winning back-to-back NCAA Championships in 1955-56.
The Dons recently debuted their throwback home uniforms featuring the traditional block "U.S.F" on the front of the team jerseys, popularized during the Bill Russell and K.C. Jones Era which played out on the Kezar Pavilion hardwood.
The commemorative uniforms are part of the festivities surrounding the Legends of Kezar game, which will also include rolled back concession prices, 1950's music and a dance contest at halftime.
