The jersey is Green. The numbers and name on back are sewn on. There is a Nike swoosh sewn onto the left front chest and a ACC flag patch sewn onto the right front chest. An orange and green 'U' logo outlined in white is sewn onto the collar at the center front. The jersey is the latest style made by Nike. There are several changes from the style worn by the 'U' over the past 4 years. All the numbers and name lettering are sewn on. The jersey demonstrates the latest breakthrough by Nike in football jersey design & technology. The concept combines a mesh and high-technology stretch woven fabric which is significantly lighter and more wearable than older models. In short, they are cool, both literally and figuratively! Only two teams had this jersey type in 2004 and only a handful will have it in 2005. This is your change to own the FUTURE OF FOOTBALL JERSEYS before most programs get them! Finally, 2004 was the first year of the U of Miami's participation in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), joining Clemson, Duke, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Virginia, Virginia Tech, and Wake Forest. The ACC patch on the shoulder commemorates this historic season for the U of Miami and the ACC. Kyle is the University of Miami's starting quarterback heading into the 2005 season due to his performance in spring practice and culminating with an excellent spring game. Kyle is being groomed to be the next great passer at U.M. He was the nation's most highly recruited quarterback coming out of high school in 2003. He heads into the season with experience in just two games and only nine passes thrown, but that is more playing time than either Bernie Kosar or Steve Walsh had when they led U.M. to its first two national championships. He enrolled at U.M. in the spring of 2003, impressing coaches with his play on the scout team. He competed for the starting job in 2004 but remained a backup, due partially to missing most of the second half of the season due to an ankle injury.Look for Kyle to be the team's quarterback of the future!  (less)

in the 76th infantry division. When he finally returned to the game, in 1945, Travis was no longer the dominant player he had been. In the three seasons that followed his return?the last three seasons of his career?only once did Travis play in more than 75 games, and his offensive numbers plummeted. Yet his pre-war accomplishments were such that he finished his 12-year career with a .314 batting average and baseball maven Bill James put Travis atop his list of players most likely to have lost a Hall of Fame career to the war. This biography documents the dynamic career of a baseball player whose path to stardom was cut short by the onset of war. It begins with Travis? childhood years, which he spent working on his family's Riverdale farm in rural Georgia. It describes his demonstration of talent during high school, which earned him athletic scholarships at several universities. Next the author details the start of Travis? professional career with the minor league Chattanooga Lookouts in 1931, his impressive rookie year with the Washington Senators, and his remaining prewar seasons in the major leagues. Travis's time as a soldier is then discussed, followed by chapters on postwar playing decline from 1945 to 1947 and his consequent retirement from major league baseball. An epilogue provides Cecil Travis? personal commentary on his baseball career, its untimely dissolution, the effects of the war, and his present life in Riverdale, where he raises livestock on his childhood farm.  (less)

wasn't enough that Homer Rice came to Georgia Tech and miraculously resuscitated the school's moribund athletic program, culminating in the 1990 national football championship.PBecause for Homer Rice, winning football games was never enough.PRice has left an enduring mark on NCAA football, and on collegiate athletics in general, but perhaps his greatest legacy is his creation of the Student-Athlete Total Person Program.
