The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel announced on Thursday that it will allow players to make social justice, commemorative and memorial statements, as well as other messages, on their jerseys in 2020. Current NCAA rules in most sports prohibit commemorative patches to be worn, while other sports do not have a rule on their books.

The loosened policy limits the areas on the jersey to two places -- the front of the jersey and the nameplate on the back.

The nameplate on the back of the jersey can now be used to celebrate or memorialize people, events or other causes, subject to school and/or conference approval. Those messages can vary from player-to-player.


Do you think the University or SEC would allow this? Thoughts?

Good intentions but a lot of these statements are not backed by facts and are pure propaganda.

As long as they can support whatever they feel like. If NCAA censors anything other than foul language, they're part of the problem.

This is pretty much my opinion. This and if every 5 minutes the announcers don't bring it up.

100% agree. If they allow pro life statements I really can’t complain. If it’s limited to left wing propaganda I’ll have a hard time donating money to support it.

Who better to teach me about social justice than an 18 year old who reads on a 5th grade level.
