Two years after Florida Twitter got its heart broken when it learned that its football team wasn’t adding black uniforms, there’s now hope. Florida coach Billy Napier told Sports Illustrated’s Richard Johnson that the Gators will eventually wear black jerseys.
“We’re gonna wear black uniforms here at the University of Florida,” Napier says. “But each one of those uniforms that we wear we are going to auction off and we’re gonna sell those and take the money and we’re gonna give that to families that maybe had some type of injury and setback and are living a little bit different lifestyle as a result of their military service and their setback.
