VINCE YOUNG JERSEY

Vince Young is a true Texas hero. As the tens of thousands of Vince Young jersey sales can attest to, Vince Young is a once a generation type quarterback. Using a freakish combination of size, speed and strength, no player in recent history has dominated college football the way Vince Young did for the University of Texas Longhorns in the fall of 2005.

In leading Mack Brown’s Longhorns to the 2006 National Championship, Vince Young established himself as one of college football’s greatest all-time players. Vince Young will always be remembered by Texas fans for his Rose Bowl MVP performance defeating what some people called the greatest college football team in history the 2005 USC Trojans. Vince Young had extra motivation after watching his opponent Reggie Bush walk away with the Heisman Trophy three weeks prior to the Rose Bowl of 2006. Vince Young came into that game with a chip in his shoulder and literally passed and ran over a stunned USC defense. Too strong for one defender to tackle and too fast to catch, Vince Young turned in one of the greatest single game performances in the long and epic Rose Bowl history.

Vince Young’s potential was never more evident than when the Tennessee Titans selected Young over Matt Leinart in the 2006 NFL Draft. Leinart’s college offensive coordinator, Norm Chow, was at the time the new coordinator for the Titans and it was widely speculated that he would select Leinart over young. The Titans definitely had another agenda and could not resist selecting Young. The Tennessee Titan Vince Young jersey quickly became one of the top seller’s in the NFL merchandise catalog.

Standing over 6′5” and weighing over 240 lbs., Vince Young is truly an opposing figure but when you combine that with a rocket arm and blazing speed you have a superstar that will drive NFL defenders crazy for years to come. A native of Houston, Young was forced at an early age to overcome many obstacles that would have destroyed the spirit of most children including a near death experience as a 7 year old when he was struck on his bicycle by an automobile. Vince also had to endure his father’s prison term while Vince was in college.

The famous #10 jersey of Vince Young is worn in honor of his mother’s birth date. From Parade All-American in high school to national champion and Rose Bowl MVP to Rookie Of The Year and the Pro Bowl in the NFL, Vince Young has excelled. He is truly one of the NFL’s brightest stars and his jersey will be seen in the stands in Tennessee and on the playgrounds of Texas for years to come.
