As you guys know I have a huge collection of Tennessee game worn jerseys. I have been looking for one from this player for years....and I finally have found it. The only issue is....is this jersey a PRACTICE jersey? I dont think we ever wore jerseys like this in actual games while Chuck was playing. Even if it is only a practice jersey, Chuck Webb is my all time favorite Vol....and in my opinion....the greatest offensive Volunteer thats ever played in Knoxville. I am excited to add this to my collection. All opinions and comments welcome........

doc,
funny thing, i saw that on ebay and i thought of your collection. Chuck webb was one of my favorites growing up and will always remeber his TD run in the rain against Auburn. Haven't located a wes brown jersey for me yet have you?

Are 100% sure it's a practice jersey? I was really young when Webb was at UT, but I can't ever remember practice jerseys having the names on the back. I could easily be wrong about that though.

I don't know with any certainty but it suggests a practice jersey to me. Look at the road jersey worn by Webb in this youtube footage (Chuck Webb's "relentless" day at the Cotton Bowl - YouTube ) of his extraordinary Cotton Bowl performance vs. Arkansas. Your jersey does not appear to have the double sleeve stripes that are clearly visible on the jersey that Webb wore for that game.

One of my favorites of all time. The early 90's was a fun time at UT. Looks like it may be a practice jersey because it doesn't have stripes on the arms.

Guys....any idea if this is a PRACTICE jersey???? I dont think game jerseys were all mesh like this one. Also....didn't Russell Athletic make the game jerseys when Chuck played? I dont think Sports Belle did. Any confirmation from you guys is appreciated....

That's awesome.I would love to have that one.In the late 90's that store in stokley center would sell either used practice jersey's or game jersey's.I bought #46 but there was no name on the back of it.You could tell it had been worn and it was thicker than the new replica jersey's that they sold with no name on it.:thumbsup:

I just don't see the fascination in collecting another man's used clothing.

It's the character they were, not the man. The Jersey represents what they were on the field....the player, not the dude. No one want's a blazer that Manning wore. Lot's of people would pay good money for one of his helmets.....

Looks like the 1990 jerseys.

Agree. The 89 Jerseys had fat letters for short names. 90 went to a standard size for all names. However, I don't think Webb wore a road jersey in 1990 (unless it was the O&W game). He played vs. Colorado in the Pigskin classic and we wore orange, then blew out his knee against Pacific at home.
