Marvin Saves

I made this shirt prior to the Spring game in 2008, back when we had the great quarterback debate on our hands. Myself and two buddies of mine threw our lot in with a lefty from Missouri. He lost out (by a wide margin) on the starting QB position, and we were bummed. Then came the announcement he was being converted to WR....and our bummed-ness multiplied tenfold. But irony has a sense of humor sometimes, and although he wasn't heard from in 2008, his name appeared on the depth charts around the Spring of 2009 as "the dude who KF is using to motiviate that...um...'not with the program' DJK". And then his name kept popping up in interviews and whispers about the surprises of fall camp, and suddenly the shirt became relevant again. Well, relevant in the sense that it wasn't a waste of $25. But the reality was, since he was no longer a QB, there was no way he can actually live up to the shirt (so to speak). I mean, what are the odds of that happening. Right? Um....right?

I guess I get to wear my t-shirt again.

Where on Earth did you get that shirt?

and where can I buy one? Secondary question, is it acceptable for a 30-year old father of 2 to wear such a shirt in public?

The look on his face says:

“Yes, yes I can save you.”

Check this out...

MSU QB Cousins has big time family connections to Iowa and wanted to come to Iowa to play during recruitment season but was told “we can’t use you, we just gave our last QB scholarship to a guy named Marvin McNutt.” —who will eventually be moved to wide receiver and catch TH PASS that will beat your future team, MSU.
