^Mine was 65...which is 80? 65 is steep but it's a different and more lasting material than your typical shitty cotton and I love UMass basketball, so yeah...

The basketball hoodie some are talking about was available at the game today at the merch stand, although it's still sold out online.

Just went to the online store to see if anything had come back in stock. I was pleased to see on the front page they have a section advertising "Hoop Gear". Made me think they either had new gear or restocked some of the items which were out of stock. No new items. There are 15 items all of which have been up for at least a few months (no problem with that), but 7 of the 15 are out of stock!!! #1 you'd figured they would have a good stock for the holiday season, hope no one was banking on getting a loved one a nice UMass hoops present..pickings are slim. #2 with the success of the team you would think they would want to ride that with items that are in stock and maybe even new items. As always I'm very disappointed with the online store.


Side note- At the Northern Illinois game they had those UMass basketball hooides that are out of stock online, not sure they they are offered at the game but not online?

Saw some Umass gear at Kohls today and got a pretty nice pair of Minutemen shorts, however, it really bothers me that there are about 6 different colors of maroon used for Umass gear. Some of their stuff was practically red.

I go to the Kohls up in Millbury when I'm up in Massachusetts visiting my wife's family. They always have a lot of good stuff for low prices. I got a really nice grey t-shirt with the new UMass logo last time I was there as well as some shorts.

I picked up a couple of long sleeve T's at Kohls in West Springfield. One of them was retro, which was cool. I did see a couple of very "red" looking items that were not very attractive, but overall the selection was pretty reasonable.

I picked up a nice Champion long sleeve tee at the Campus store...black with UMASS in maroon trimmed with white trim across the chest.

Got to use the 20% discount card that came with my season tickets. 8)

I've accumulated several of them over the years...the good news...no expiration date!

The ones UMass has sent out this year have an expiration date of 12/31/13. The ones from past years, however, don't!

^ That's why I kept them.

I had forgotten that this year's has an expiration date since I used it to buy assorted stuff for my kids and grandchildren earlier this season.

^

I was in the store the other day and noticed they are discounting a large portion of their collection of adidas gear. I wonder what they are getting in for the spring.

^ I must've used one of the old ones back in November because this season's discount card is still in my wallet. The good news is the expiration date is not until 4/30/2014.

My Mom rules. She got me the UMass Basketball hoodie for Christmas. I'm going to be "That guy" on gamedays. :lol:

Just watched the UMass-Providence game. Man, those were ugly uniforms the Minutemen were wearing. Almost as ugly at the NY Knicks orange colored jerseys.
