John Wooden Purdue jersey...com'n home!

[GoCubsGo32]

I'm thrilled to see that John Wooden's Purdue jersey is heading back home to Purdue University. I was praying it ended up in the right hands to be shared and love by the Purdue family & Alum. Thanks Drew Brees for making this happen! Boiler up!

Thanks for posting, Gary. Great story!

Anyone who knows Drew or is aware of his charitable efforts will not be shocked by this. He is the Man.

I'm looking forward to seeing the jersey the next time we're back "home" and can attend a Purdue game.

Wow, that’s really cool and, gulp, that’s a lot of free change - $264,000.
