I heard that story but had never seen the pic until now. The douche wasn't even at the Kansas game. Just flew into Dallas when it seemed like a prime photo-op.

They should have done something similar to the football road unis. Could be slick, though these do seem to be somewhat similar if they got rid of the ugly whit lining on the numbers

Really pretty darn good!  But it's a trick, Adidas.  We know you're just being nice to us to show us we made a mistake leaving Adidas for our new trophy bride, Nike.

We didn't make a mistake.  And this does not make up for the trash tornado away jerseys.

According to BLL, the football uniformz were all on Brandon. Adidas wasn't any happier with him than the fans were - it cost them to come up with prototypes of his stupid ideas.  So it's not a stretch to think that he was involved with the basketball uniformz too.

I have always faulted the AD for allowing those uniforms.  But to learn that they were the spawn of Dave Brandon (as I have through your reply and the replies below)? 

As if I needed another reason to dislike Brandon and his reign of error.

[EDIT - Holy Jebus - those shorts are turrible.  Just turrible!!]

It wasn't their decision to have the teams change into them at the last second, nor was it likely their choice to even make them as an alternate.  I think that one can be laid at the feet of the Athletic Director who must not be named(As it apparently seems a lot of the Adidas uniformz f-ups can be according to BLL).
