RipsIt reader Matt Rodriguez e-mailed in asking, "Do players get to keep their uniform after their senior year?"
After the final game of every season, all the players get to keep the jersey from that game, regardless of what year they are in school. So for the Trojans, players have gotten to keep the jersey worn in the Rose Bowl for the last four seasons (three cardinal jerseys and one white jersey, all with the Rose Bowl patch on them).
Technically, the jersey is part of the program's "bowl gift" to each player. Bowl gifts, which are limited to a certain monetary value each year, include electronics, gift cards, backpacks, watches -- and the game-worn jersey from the bowl.
