Style Archive '08-09: Volume 1 | In The Paint

The Style Archive -- the definitive museum of college hoops style -- is back for its third season. We already have 107 exhibits on display from the past two seasons, and will be unveiling new batches on a regular basis here In The Paint. Enjoy ...

	1. Sideshow de Souza Luciano de Souza, 6-7 forward, Jr., Idaho Classification: Hair Explosion Spotted: Nov. 16 at Michigan State Notes: De Souza was born in Mateo, Brazil, and has the same name as a famed Brazilian midfielder. The hoops Luciano was initially supposed to attend San Diego, where his hair would have been less conspicuous.
	2. Mouthpiece Storage Kahiem Seawright, 6-8 forward, Sr., Rhode Island Classification: Free-throw Habit Spotted: Nov. 16 at Duke Notes: Seawright has the curious habit of removing his mouthpiece and sticking it in his headband before shooting from the charity stripe. This creates the illusion of wearing a bandana, which NCAA rules don't allow.
	3. Sleeves! Tony Crocker, 6-6 guard, Jr., Oklahoma Classification: Extreme undershirt Spotted: Dec. 26 vs. UAB Notes: Perhaps there was a chill in the Garden on Thanksgiving Eve, when Crocker -- who's normally a short-sleever -- went with this get-up in the NIT. He may be the only long-sleever in Style Archive history.
	4. Mach-G Gerald Henderson, 6-4 guard/forward, Jr., Duke Classification: Hair Liberation Spotted: Nov. 21 vs. Michigan Notes: Henderson was, well, receding a bit last season, and opted to go with a more streamlined look as a junior. We believe that Grant Hill followed a similar hair path, so perhaps this is an ode to the last great Duke wing.
	5. D-Shirted Marcus Landry, 6-7 forward, Sr., Wisconsin Classification: Hair Liberation Spotted: Dec. 1 at Virginia Tech Notes: This is the year of the shaved head. First Henderson, then Landry, and even UK's Patrick Patterson bailed on his brief afro experiment. We personally liked Landry's old look, but this does accentuate his goggles.
