I believe Dave Grob left Mears and joined SGC in 2018, suggesting he must saw and graded this jersey in 2017 when Mears gave out A5 grade. Then few years later after he joined SGC, Dave graded the same jersey as "Excellent", which is the 2nd highest grade for a game worn jersey based on his new SGC grading system. Please don't get me wrong, I think it's a great jersey from a great season, I just find it interesting that same jersey graded by the same person jumped from a Mears A5 (essentially the lowest grade for a jersey) to a grade "Excellent" in a matter of few years.
