Anthony Carter and the Tear-Away Jersey | Storytime with Dr. Sap

Guest post by Steve “Dr Sap” Sapardanis

Ed. Bumping up because AC is back in town this weekend, and yes, I got to meet and spend a little time with the legend Friday night #goblue.

When looking back at some classic pictures and photos of Anthony Carter, you will notice that most of the time his jersey looked different from those worn by his Michigan teammates. Your eyes aren’t deceiving you – AC, at times, did in fact wear a different jersey than his maize & blue brethren (see lead photo).

From 1979 through the 1981 season, Carter wore tear-away jerseys made by Russell Athletic.
