Looking at his high school highlights, he's wearing either white or black long sleves in every game. Must be a good-luck or comfort thing.

Kansas is cold in the fall and winter, it might have been born from need and become a habit

I don't care what kind of sleeves Harp wears, as long as he keeps busting his rear for the team!

I like the white sleeves. It gets me excited when I see him in the game (totally platonic, fan-based way). It may tip off the opposing team, but when he gets the playbook down it won't matter.

His number tips the other team of too no matter what undershirt he's wearing...other teams are going to be prepared and looking for number 1 and number 3 not at the QB spot...Thats why the trick play with DT was so well covered...he just made an amazing throw.

first. name one NBA player who has done that, worn sleeves to cover tattoos.
Second that is a tight underarmor style shirt. you want loose? look at brett farve. or Jarius Byrd in the bowl game. that is loose

Byrd was not wearing any sleeves in the Bowl.

I agree the sleeves are a give away he's in and sumpin's up. Someone just needs to ask him why he wears them.

Also why would you want to highlight you are on the field...those bloody things glow for Pete's sake!

If I was his coach I'd make him wear the same as everyone else...and if he has to wear the white sleeves/shirt he can do it when we wear our whites!

True, but the white sleeves just gives them a little more time to adjust their D. It was just an observation. You can easily get a guy hidden in the mix until the last second by hiding his number, but the white sleeves is a huge giveaway to the "man" up in the box. Hey, I'm okay with the sleeves if it's a good luck thing for him, just as long as the plays keep working.

Pretty sure he did though against UCLA and a couple other teams.

I think Byrd wore the really loose sleeves during the Stanford game, along with Crenshaw.
