Q: I was wondering if there was an update on the replica jersey conversation. I would really like to find a David Robinson jersey. - asked by: Tremain Dunn -
A: Tremain, the football side of the equation was taken care of. The basketball has been a little more difficult. Right now our vendor is the Nike Corporation for our replica jerseys and although we have a football deal with Nike, we do not have the same relationship with regard to basketball. The best advice I can give you would be to call or write the "Midshipmen's Store" on the Yard, or "Peppers", which is an apparel shop down on Main Street in Annapolis and voice your interest in the product. We'll do the same, and see if we can't talk each of them into the product. They're really good, and they are both partner of ours so, hopefully, they'll buy into your suggestion.

Q: I live in San Antonio and am a big Spurs fan. David Robinson is by far the most popular Spurs player ever. I was wondering if Navy sells replicas of his jersey, and if so, how much? If not, do you know where I might be able to purchase one? - asked by: Robert De Los Santos -
A: Robert, that is definitely something we need to look into. I will have our Senior Associate AD for External Relations, Eric Ruden, get right on this, and hopefully you will see David Robinson jerseys right along side those of Roger Staubach.
