In addition to the jersey new Blue level members receive a 2014 EIU Athletics Mouse Pad and Magnet.
The No. 10 EIU Garoppolo jerseys are available in adult sizes from Small to XXL and youth sizes S to L (add $5 shipping and handling for mail orders). Orders will be ready to be shipped on October 16
Eastern Illinois athletics is the only place fans will be able to obtain an official No. 10 EIU Jimmy Garoppolo jersey. As an added bonus the first 100 new Panther Club members joining at the Blue Level or greater will be entered into a drawing to exchange their jersey for an autographed one by Garoppolo.
New memberships and membership upgrades for the No. 10 EIU Garoppolo replica jersey can be done in person at the Lantz Arena Athletic Office or over the phone at (217) 581-2310.

He was drafted in the second round by the New England Patriots and made his NFL debut on Sept. 29 on Monday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs.
