Kent State bowl swag not bad
Athletes always enjoy getting anything for free, so there’s no doubting KSU players’ excitement over the bowl swag they’ve been receiving this week as part of the GoDaddy.com Bowl.
Every day since arriving in town, the players have been given a gift; upon arrival on Wednesday they were given Soul Republic headphones sporting the KSU logo. Thursday’s gift was a large leather garment bag with the GoDaddy.com logo.
Friday’s gift was a watch and before the game Sunday, each player is slated to receive a commerative game ball.
In addition, before leaving for Mobile, the university gave players and coaches new blue Nike warm up suits featuring the bowl logo on the back.
