UNC’s Logo Jersey A Y2K Glitch Jordan Couldn’t Pull Off

Posted Jan 20, 2011
You can’t get more traditional than UNC’s baby-blue-and-white uniforms with the block “North Carolina” on the front. And yet prior to the 1999-2000 season, the school decided it would try a major design change to the uniform, led by a former Tar Heel. In fact it was THE former Tar Heel: Michael Jordan. Unfortunately, on this occasion, “Air Jordan” was more like “Err Jordan.” (Lost Lettermen)
