David Holloman was featured in a tweet sent out by the Hoosiers’ athletic department on Saturday ahead of No. 17 Indiana’s 34-6 loss to No. 18 Iowa, though there was one big spelling error on his jersey.

But, doesn’t he have access to more than one jersey? Was his the only one misspelled? Good on him for just wearing it anyway.

or the football program caught it.
I’ve never understood putting the school name on the chest. Is it so the players can look down and remember who they play for?

Norte Dame doesn’t put the players names on the back and to me it makes the player devoid of personality. I say that because I will see guys in the NFL who were Domers and I have no memory of them playing there.
