I know there are a few college collectors on the forum. It doesn't have to be a school you went to; maybe just your favorite or from your hometown. Pro jerseys of your favorite college stars are acceptable, also.
I graduated from Campbell University. Gaylord and Jim Perry and Cal Koonce also attended Campbell.
Here is a mid 1980s Campbell Camels basketball warm-up jacket:

My father worked at Georgetown all his life. I was lucky enough to go to 3 final fours and 10 big east tournaments. The jersey at top left was worn in the 1982 national final; top right is from the mid 70s; bottom left is Fred Brown's practice jersey from 1982 and bottom right is a '97 home jersey. I kick myself everytime I see it because I was working Thompson's camp one summer and asked Craig Esherick if I could have a game jersey. He asked if I wanted anyone in particular and I said I just wanted a gamer-player was unimportant. If I had been thinking I could have had an Allen Iverson GU gamer, but I blew it. The shoes at left are the ones they used the year Villanove beat them in the final and the others are from 1987.

2001 Tom Lopienski game used away jersey with the wear you would expect for a fullback - has numerous repairs, including a big 2 inch repair above the #3 on the front (Lopienski played sporadically for the Colts)

Well it's pretty obvious what I collect. Here's my favorite pro jersey. It's a 1994 Lomas Brown re-used in 1995. Neck is totally customized and the whole jersey is hammered with use.

My favorite Gator jersey belonged to Will White, an All-American defensive back in the late 80's and early 90's.

No, I am not familiar with the name. What is his significance? I'd really like to know.

Those are some nice G'Town pieces! Those 1985 NIKEs with "HOYAS" on the back are extremley sought after by vintage Nike collectors (more so than game-used collectors). The low-cuts are rare! Who wore those? I know this sounds crazy to game-used collectors, but the less wear...the more valuable.

At Thompson's camp every summer they would sell all the left over Nike junk from years past, which is how I came up with both pair of shoes. The 85s are only size 9.5, so I bet they were meant for asst coach Mike Riley, who was only 5' 7" or maybe one of the managers, who was in that size range. How much do you think they are worth to the vintage nike collectors?

I bet the Hoya shoes could get $500. But that's a guess. There are more serious collectors in Japan and Europe, but many in the US also. It's a matter of finding the right buyer. I know there are a few NIKE forums out there that might put you in touch with the right people.

"Set shot Tootie" used to give pep talks at local high school basketball camps in Pittsburgh back in the early 1980s. Wish I knew his real name. All I know is he was a scout for Campbell and he called himself "Coach Tootie". Shot free throws just like Set Shot Buford in the Fish that Saved Pittsburgh. He was everywhere, used to poke his head around telephone poles at pickup basketball games. Would try to hide thinking nobody would notice. I'm probably exaggerating a bit given it was a quarter century ago but this is what I remember about him, he was a classic, great guy! Everyone loved him. If you know anyone associated with Campbell hoops in the 80s I'll bet he could be tracked down.

Press Maravich was an associate coach and assistant athletic director at Campbell in the early 80s. He is from Pittsburgh, so maybe there is a connection. Campbell had several players from Penn. in the early 80s, some recruited by Maravich. I'd like to know more about this tootie guy.

You would love him. No matter where it was you could say "Hey Tootie!" and he'd fake like he was dribbling around you and then would pull up for the imaginary J. Even in the back of church, I remember him coming in about 20 minutes late and then we'd talk hoops. It's easy to see why he had success getting players to Campbell from PA. Hope you can track him down, nobody ever loved the game of basketball more!

This is a picture of the jersey that Mastro sold in October of 2006. The jersey was claimed to be a game used version of Darrell Griffith's early 1980's jersey from my alma mater the University of Louisville. When I first saw it I got real excited because you just don't see any game used jerseys from that era for the Cardinals. Upon looking at it closer it something just didn't seem right so I did some investigating to which it turned out to be fake and my info came straight from Dr. Dunkenstein himself. Mastro still ended up selling the jersey as game used. I would have loved to have had it just for display purposes but since it was still sold by Mastro as game used even after this info came to light I just didn't want any part of it.

My favorite player is Charlie Batch!

Here's a Charlie Batch gamer from Eastern Michigan University. I also have four of his Detroit Lions game worn jerseys and one Lions game worn helmet.

In addition, I also have EMU college jerseys for Kevin Walter of the Texans, Chris Roberson of the Jaguars, and Jason Short (formerly on the Eagles).

Go EMU!
