I will not make a check out to anything having to do with "Toledo" or "Rockets" or "Fuel"
Just playing, I'd love to see what the specs look like. . .
Here's a picture of the prototype that we have:
That looks great RR! This really is testament to the resourcefulness of a group of fans - rivals or not. You know, we have the nice message board and you guys know how to order s**t.
Just kidding. Seriously, thanks and keep us posted.

All, I've shut this down because of the following email from the University. Please respect their request. Any questions or comments, please email or PM me.
Grant,
Could you please let folks on the brown jersey post know that the only authorized brown jersey supplier is Sportex. They work with SBX so folks could call them. Here is their address and phone number.

We will be very aggressive at stopping any non-licensed vendor who produces a jersey that is not licensed. Thanks.
If some other vendor wants to get licensed then we would be happy to help them through the process.

Upon further review... and with some help from BGDrew... it looks like everything IS legit. I've responded to the university official and will make sure everything is above board, but it looks like RangerRocket IS using Sportex afterall.
As you were....

If the University would just have it's supplier produce authentics or replica's by Reebok or who ever makes the authentic, then we wouldn't have this problem, now would we?

If it meant the authentic Adidas logo on the jersey instead of Sportex, I'd buy adidas. I know a number of others that feel the same way. In fact, most of us think the Sportex logo is keeping us from buying a jersey altogether.

Yeah but $50 for a Sportex jersey that is diatomically correct sure beats $200 for an authentic, reinforced, long ready to be in the trenches jersey.

It's all about diatomics with you, isn't it?
It's a good point, though.

As far as the hockey jerseys, I almost positive there's a new deal going through and all the equipment will be one brand, which I think is Reebok. If it's as I think, the jerseys will be new and Reebok.
