Request-BU,Hofstra,NE and Vermont FB t-shirts

[Brad82]

Hey-anyone know where I can buy FB t-shirts for these defunct FCS programs?
Can't seem to find anything on internet?


Thanks.

The UVM bookstore sells (or at least used to sell) an "undefeated since 1974" football t-shirt. I'm not sure if that's the sort of thing you're looking for, though.

The interwebs are wonderous:

I'm not sure you'll find anything else because it's been 35 years since UVM played football. And I'm not sure they had "Vermont Football" tee shirts back then. I don't recall UNH having anything like that back then. If they did, it was probably only available to the players.

BU has been without football now for over a decade, right? You've got a better chance of getting a Terrier Football shirt. You should post something on the America East forum, the USCHO forum (ice hockey) or a BU specific forum since that's where their fans and alumni hang out.

If I recall correctly, the "undefeated since" catch-line first was used by Rider College, whose football team was disbanded in 1951 in the midst of a point-shaving scandal - "Undefeated Since 1951." Rider has the resources and desire to field an FCS team, but institutional resistance has always prevented them from doing so.

And in UVM's case it would be undefeated since 1975 - they played in '74.

That's interesting. Maybe that's where Gonzaga picked up their "Undefeated since 1942" slogan for their now defunct football program. They used to be a member of the Big Sky Conference in basketball at least at one time as well.

Did they win their last game?

New York is not part of New England

New York is not part of New England
Albany is just 27 miles from Massachusetts, and only the water of Long Island Sound is between Stony Brook and Bridgeport. In a world where St. Louis is in the Atlantic-"10" and New Jersey Tech is in the Great West, getting football at Vermont is a lot more problematic than stretching the borders of an informal region.

That's why the original "New England Conference" became the "Yankee Conference" back in the 1940s: expansion into New York.

The Northeastern bookstore had some the last time I was there.

I have a bunch of authentic NU football stuff, but I'm holding on to it for dear life.

I did get a helmet from Rocky Hager a couple of years ago as a "thank you" and it's displayed prominently in my office.

Vermont just started up a club football team a few years ago, they might have some UVM football shirts for you
