A spokeswoman for Nike emails with the following:

Tonight the Longhorns will debut new uniforms that are dramatically lighter and that are designed to pay tribute to the basketball program and heritage of the University of Texas, including unique call-outs to the Longhorn logo, campus landmarks and the school motto.

Texas is one of several teams in college hoops utilizing these Nike HyperElite uniforms, which are 70 percent lighter than a traditional elite level basketball uniform, and celebrate the rich spirit, tradition and culture of the nation’s top basketball programs.

Images of the new uniforms are after the jump.

Nike shows us what it would look like if Justin Timberlake were our point guard.
