Popular Post huskerguy Posted August 7, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2014 Hello Huskerboard, long time since my last post, but with the news of the alternate uniforms and then the news of young Jack Hoffman it made me think Nebraskans need to stand up and try and help our own. I was just wondering if anyone has any idea who I could possibly email at the university about an idea I had to possibly have a Team Jack game. I know in the past there have been games set aside where people were encouraged to wear their team jack shirt. Whether you like the "red rising" uniform or not we all know that takes several months of planning. This uniform doesn't need to be flashy or shiny. However I think it would be so cool and motivational for each player on the team to have the name plate on the back of their jersey be JACK or TEAM JACK, or possibly words of encouragement like FIGHT, SURVIVE, etc ( similar to the northwestern military uniforms) and then a simple Pediatric Brain Cancer ribbon on the helmet. The team could then auction off the jerseys like they have done in the past with the proceeds going towards the Team Jack Foundation. I'm sure there would also be a huge boost in sales/donations of team jack shirts. Maybe this is a silly idea and some will laugh, or maybe it will spark an idea to raise a substantial amount of money towards fighting a terrible disease. 11 Quote Link to comment
The Duke Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I don't think this is a silly idea at all. This is a fabulous idea that I think all Husker fans should get behind. It helps raise awareness to Team Jack's cause while helping to raise funds to stop such a horrible disease. Brilliant idea! Quote Link to comment

Landlord Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Probably not the guy that would actually have the call, but I know Kelly Mosier in the marketing department and he might be able to forward you on if you tell him I sent you Quote Link to comment
Hoosker Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Idk about an entire uniform, but a sticker on the helmet or a patch on the jersey would be a nice touch. Love where you're coming from though. Quote Link to comment

Love where you're coming from though. Thanks that's what I was thinking. A decal on the helmet or even a patch would be a great idea. As I mentioned in the original post it would be our traditional jerseys, the only difference I was thinking would be a different nameplate sown on the back. Quote Link to comment

I have a email drafted out to the Community Relations AD, but waiting to see if anyone has any other insight. Quote Link to comment
