Go Retro!

The Dukes will be sporting throwback jerseys for tomorrow night's game against Robert Morris. You can purchase your Norm Nixon throwback jersey here.

I am a huge fan of wearing a team's jersey to their games.
My closet it filled with jerseys including:

  • Ben Roethlisberger jersey
  • Sidney Crosby jersey
  • Throwback Roberto Clemente jersey
  • A collection of bad Pirates jerseys: Kris Benson, Brian Giles, and Jason Kendall.

I have never really understood the basketball jersey thing, maybe it is because we don't have an NBA team in Pittsburgh. I can't wear a basketball jersey without an undershirt because I have no tan. I guess I could pull a Aaron Jackson and wear a tee-shirt under the jersey, but that looks sort of silly in my opinion. Needless to say I doubt I'll be spending the $159 necessary to purchase one of the retro Norm Nixon jerseys.

As alum (bus ad '02), season ticket holder, life long fan, and legacy of two alum and faculty memebers, (father '55, mom '68), thanking you for starting this site. I recently visited Xavier and the hoops gear you can get there is tremendous. When will DU put some effort and market their great logo, colors, history?
