So I thought Kelby Brown was ...

... playing in the Pinstripe Bowl, but the Chronicle says it was:

... Ben Humphries wearing K Browns number 59 with K Browns NAME ON HUMPHRIES JERSEY!

BTW Ben Humphries started and had 11 total tackles in the PS Bowl.

Damn what a good future for ILB ! Go Duke !

I'm surprised that wearing another player's jersey is/was allowed - even if that player is done for the year and not to be confused with the active roster.

Maybe it isn't allowed. This doesn't seem like a well thought-out decision. I hope I'm wrong.

I believe that the tribute was announced prior to the game and as such was probably allowed.

My guess is that you can do it, but you have to let the other team know what you are doing. I saw a kicker for some team this year change jersey's for the kickoff because another player on the kickoff team had his number. So he's kick a field goal or extra point, then run over and pull on another jersey to kick off....

This is correct. I recall some comment that it was not as easy to get approved as one might think but that it is allowable.

Ben is a special player, gonna be a big one for us before all is said and done.
