<p>Do you get lettermans in college for playing a sport?!</p>
<p>Not that i am aware of</p>
<p>No. But if you play for a varsity (i.e. NCAA team) the school will supply you with plenty of clothes to wear.</p>
<p>I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a “college letterman”, tbh.</p>
<p>^^^David Letterman went to college, and I’m sure several of his relatives did too. :p</p>
<p>^^ Ahahahha. Nice joke.</p>
<p>My older brother got a burnt-orange jacket with the Texas “T” symbol. He signed for the Texas Longhorns football team 7 years ago, and was on the team as a redshirt-freshman. He quit the team a couple weeks after the 2005 National Championship game…but UT still gave him his letterjacket. It’s one of those special jacket they give to varsity athletes…</p>
<p>He left the team to focus on academics…he wanted to do law school, more than just football. My bro graduated from Columbia Law this summer…so I suppose it’s worth it for him.</p>
<p>No your not in high school anymore. I swam for a bit in college and like most of the other athletes you get clothes to work out in/ wear around, bags to carry equipment, water bottles…etc. Not even the football players where I go get a letter jacket.</p>
<p>Some colleges do. Others don’t. I’ve seen athletes wearing such jackets at U of Mich. Here’s a pic of a celebration at Ohio State with a lot of alumni-athletes wearing them: [Jim</a> Tressel Returned to Ohio State, Fans Cheered On in Rapture [Video] | The Big Lead](<a href=“http://www.thebiglead.com/index.php/2012/11/24/jim-tressel-returned-to-ohio-stadium-fans-cheered-on-in-rapture-video/]Jim”>Jim Tressel Returned to Ohio State, Fans Cheered On in Rapture [Video])</p>
<p>In the movie “Rudy” the Notre Dame players often wore them.</p>
