O.K. I'll bite on this. Back in the day of shiny uniforms, (ceremoniously turned to ashes on center court after the Duke fiasco) UConn used some type of shiny lettering that presented minimum contrast to the unis. That made discerning the numbers very difficult. Hey, if you're going to have numbers, you should be able to read them right?
Well back to the topic at hand. I don't care because based on watching on TV these shiny numbers have a high contrast to the unis and are easily read. So, in conclusion, no problemo!
