Jasper Johnson launches apparel brand following Kentucky commitment
Remember when Jasper Johnson said he was “KY ’til I die” after announcing his commitment to Kentucky? Mark Pope celebrated his first five-star addition by wearing a shirt with that very slogan on SEC Nation this past weekend, telling Ryan McGee the program is “recruiting guys who understand Kentucky and want to wear this jersey.”
“Kentucky is just different, man. That’s why we’re Kentucky ’til we die!” Pope told the crowd.
Johnson’s commitment was a big one, giving the Wildcats two top-25 recruits two months ahead of the early signing period, joining No. 1 center and fellow in-state standout Malachi Moreno. Now you can celebrate that pledge with a “KY Til I Die” shirt of your own, available to purchase now on the five-star guard’s official merch store.
Johnson has a number of t-shirts and hoodies available, one set featuring a picture of Jasper and his official logo and two others including his now-famous slogan on Comfort Colors and Nike tees. The Comfort Colors shirts are available in blue or black while the Nike shirts are blue. His photo tee and hoodie are both black.
A few examples of the apparel available at Jasper’s online shop:
“Being from Lexington, Kentucky, I feel like that was an easy decision right there,” Johnson said last week. “I feel like I’m KY ’til I die.“
Now he’s got the merchandise to back that up.
