Why can't one buy a replica jersey any more for any of the sports? Would seem like a slam dunk to sell some.

As a golfer of limited skill, I am a fan of the Peter Millar and Fairway & Green labels. Both have collegiate lines, but HC is not in either, although a number of our Patriot League brethren are. I believe Fairfield is in both lines. I mentioned PM to coach Napoli once; he claimed that according to the PM rep, we would need a huge volume of annual sales in the $50k range. But that doesn't make sense to me given some of the other schools in the PM portfolio.

I hope they're at least planning on running the sale of "retired" unis on Reunion Saturday. The stuff probably sells really well given you can't buy anything else like it.

Her tenure as president wasn’t much longer than Bud Fox at Blue Star Airlines.

In reading the comments on the article, she seems to have been liked and well-respected by many of her colleagues. What was the espoused reason for her departure in such a short time frame? Seems as if I recall an article in HC Magazine about her taking the position at UA within the last 12-15 months. |

Her tenure was roughly the same as the 3 other CEOs (2 interim and 1 full-time) who preceded her after UA founder Kevin Plank stepped down in the fall of 2019.
When the founder of a company stays on the board and owns something like 65% of the voting shares of a company, its very hard to actually give control over to someone else. Which is probably why he's back as CEO replacing Linnartz.

Even the G.O.A.T. Tom Brady couldn't lift UA out of the doldrums. I haven't had the time or interest to try to figure out the catch in the uniform racket but I wonder if cutting out the middle man by going private label would be profitable if a school sold a high volume of swag to fans?

I can do dropshipping for nearly any item (clothing, trinket, swag) for my measly podcast with tens of listeners, and my own custom logo, and HC can't figure out how to do this for their own sports gear?
If I had a high enough resolution image, it wouldn't necessarily be embroidered (but it could be if I did the homework for it), but you could get it on hoodies, sweatshirts, etc.
