I'm guessing that Nike had to reduce # of options during this transition as they get all teams into the new style. Doesn't make sense to product 2 versions of jerseys. There's lots of economies of scale when NFL and Colleges are all the same cuts and materials. So since we never offered White we have to wait.
Not sure what the "ski-u-mah" means that's on the collar of the Minnesota Jersey... They also have it on the back of their helmets.
I'm from MN so I know. Ski - u(or some spelling) was an Indian battle cry. The Mah is short for Minnesota. So basically "Minnesota will be(or was) victorious". I think it's kind of cool. Sort of like our "All In" on the helmets.

Ski-U-Mah (pronounced SKY-YOU-MAH) is a cheer Gophers have been screaming since 1884 during a rugby game. Ski comes from a Dakota battle cry meaning "victory", and U-Mah represents the U of M.

Ahh, here I thought it was sponsorship from a Ski resort in Yuma, AZ.
