2019-2020 BOSTON UNIVERSITY RED RETRO SET
GAME USE & ABUSE: By Estimates, Skoog wore this jersey no more than four times. The wear consists of very faint marks and pulls. Upon first inspection there is really no wear to speak of. A few marks can be seen across the belly of the shirt and aside from that... Nothing really to speak of. This was rumored to be the last year they would wear the red retro set and the sweaters are unique this season. Upon first inspection there is no manufacturer on the outside of the jersey on the front or back. The neck tag says "SP", but Under Armour was the brand used. Additionally the numbers were wider than in previous seasons although not any fatter. On the back the felt numbers are quilted on unlike how they were done in previous years.

The Above Photos show Wilmer Skoog in action scoring the game winning goal versus Boston College in the first round of the Beanpot. This was in over time. Since Skoog joined the team after Christmas and the Covid-19 virus came into effect in March there was only a limited time he wore this jersey. The wear reflects it, but it still means a lot to me to own it.
2020-2021 BOSTON UNIVERSITY ROAD RED SET
GAME USE & ABUSE: This red set is very light in terms of wear. Starting on the left sleeve there are two small board burns that have not materialized into hole or the shine from heating up. On the right sleeve, there are trio of marks in the white stripe along with another eight board burns on the reinforced elbow. hem of cuff of the sleeve has come undone on 3/4 of the cuff. The front of the jersey show off a nice mark on the Jack Kelley patch. Another mark can be seen below the shoulder where the "A" or "C" would reside on a Captain's jersey. Yet another mark can be seen on the second "O" in BOSTON. Finally we can see some loose threads in the "B" in Boston. Flipping the jersey over, it is hard to see any wear what-so-ever.

2020-2021 BOSTON UNIVERSITY HOME WHITE SET
GAME USE & ABUSE: As of the writing of this, these are the finest game worn jerseys ever produced for Boston University. All the different colored fabric is stitched together and not sublimated, the fabric is different for various areas of the jerseys, and the material is very durable. This was a shortened season due to Covid-19 so wear is light. The left arm shows off very light marks on the white stripe and some fraying to the number stitching. On the opposite arm, a repair in the shape of the "big Dipper" constellation can be seen to the left of the arm numbers. Fraying can also be found on this arm's numbers along with light marks on the white stripes. On the front of the jersey, there are some very nice marks. A mark can be seen on the belly region just below the numbers. A pair of thin slash mark also can be seen running diagonal from the second "O" in "BOSTON" towards the right lower hem. Some liter specks of marks can be found littered on the white lower hem as well as the belly region above the red stripe, but below the numbers. However, the best mark is a vibrant slash mark running from the bottom part of the "B" in "BOSTON" in a swoosh curve towards the lower left hem. On the back, no marks can be seen which may be in part to the unique mesh material and just bad luck.

2021-2022 BOSTON UNIVERSITY HOME WHITE DOUBLE STRIPE SET
GAME USE & ABUSE: The wear is lighter but definitely visible. The left sleeve a single mark on the inside of the bicep area of the sleeve. Jumping to the other sleeve, three repairs can be seen in the forearm area with some yellow discoloration around one of them. A board burn that has literally "cut" through the seam stitching can also be seen. The front of the jersey shows off some lighter marks and one very visible one located just below the letter "B" in "BOSTON". It is a red/brown colored slash mark perhaps from a stick, but definitely NOT blood. The lower hem has not kept it's shape and has rolled up on the front and back of the jersey. On the reverse, there are no marks to speaks of and just a light "rubbing in the bottom white stripe.
