Military Appreciation Jersey Auction

[GopherHole]

GoJacks has reported that game jersey's from last week's win over ISUb are on sale. You can bid on them with an opening bid of $100. All proceeds benefit the Brookings County Veterans Memorial. Too bad we couldn't offer more special jerseys on auction for fundraisers for the team. I wonder if that would violate NCAA rules?

I noticed you could not bid on the #1 or #19 jerseys. Are all for sale or are some being held back for special reasons?

I heard that a few were held out of the auction. No explanation as to why though in what I read.

Maybe you will see them next spring on the Stan Marshall Auction.

Good for the cause but too bad for aesthetics. I thought they were sharp jerseys.

Re: Military Appreciation Jersey Auction

Who paid for the Jerseys? I wonder if this was by the military and/or veterans groups honored or did it come out of the football budget? Since the County Veterans Memorial is to receive the proceeds from the sale, it makes one wonder. I don't have a problem with this since I am a veteran myself, just curious.

I heard an interview with Stig and when they discussed the jersey auction it seems to me he said something about thanking the administration for providing the jerseys - not sure if that meant central or athletic dept. administration.

You would think it would be an easy thing to get Under Armor on board with

Thanks I thought maybe the NG, VFW and Legion had pitched in but that may not be the case. At least the proceeds ends up being for a good cause. If the admin had a hand in it, then expect those two coveted numbers to show up at the Stan Marshall Auction.

I also noticed Alex Wilde's #10 jersey was not available. I started to check and then got REALLY tired of it. Maybe some are being used as gifts to sick kids or something.

You made me laugh Nidaros. As a vet myself of the NG, a VFW and Legion member, we'd never spring for this. All on SDSU AD. And under armor. I'm glad we are with them. Cutting edge of fitting athletes. Uniforms were much better in person than the terrible photo release last week. I went online to bid on 19 and it wasn't available. Kinda pissed me off. Likely on the Stan auction to drive up price next spring. I'm okay with that, I suppose.

Yes I think that would be much better.

Wait a minute! American Legion Baseball. That takes money to run. Just saying. No not likely to buy college Jerseys, but to imply they are cheap is not completely true either.

True, maybe it is just my post. Not a ton of members and my home town doesn't even have baseball anymore either. I'm sure we would sponsor if there was interest.

I can see where this dialogue could lead to discussion of rural population decline, I love to have it but need to start somewhere else on this board.
