The San Diego Padres are the gold standard in the camouflage-jersey genre. In fact, they may be the only standard. But they'll get some local competition from Michigan State and North Carolina in November, as both teams don camouflage versions of their usual uniforms at the much-ballyhooed Carrier Classic event.

Both versions of the uniforms made their way to the Internet today, but the MSU jerseys came in slightly sneaky fashion. According to the Detroit Free Press, the MSU jerseys were spotted during KTVI St. Louis' report on the company that sewed World Series patches on the Cardinals' jerseys. This image showed a glimpse of camo-colored Michigan State uniforms sitting alongside the Cardinals uniforms. With the cat out of the bag -- though it's not like this was a state secret -- Michigan State coach Tom Izzo confirmed the camo style to the Free Press Wednesday.

Speaking of unis, why would the NCAA care about vertical lettering?

And speaking of unis 3: I'm glad Nike doesn't try to mess with the Bama unis.

From KSR

Mitch McGary wrote on his blog over at ESPN High School that he plans to make his commitment sometime next week. He’ll choose between Duke, Michigan, and Florida. Maryland and North Carolina have been in the running but it appears the No. 2 prospect in 2012 has cut those schools from his list.

The 6-foot-10 center was reportedly set to commit to Michigan last month, but he cancelled the announcement and reopened his recruitment for a little while longer. That could be because his parents love Duke, although his AAU coach is hoping for Michigan. The Gators still have a shot as well.

This kid has Dukie written all over him. He’s a floor slappin’, chest bumpin’ animal.
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

The medical problem that A&M coach Billy Kennedy is fighting was fatigue and lack of sleep due to an early stage of Parkinson's disease.

Considering I had a father die of prostate cancer and now have a mother living day by day with advanced Parkinsons, I don't see myself ever making fun of a terminal illness. Unless it was a bacon addiction.

eCat -- Regarding Mitch McGary, the word is it's likely going to be Michigan. But I agree with you, he's got that dook* blew devil look about him. If I understand the NBA early entry rules correctly, McGary could also be eligible for the 2012 NBA Draft, being that his high school class has already graduated (he's at a prep school for his final year). Someone correct me if I've I'm wrong about that hardship rule.
