Eagle-eyed fans spot major error on college basketball team’s jerseys

College basketball fans noticed a glaring mistake on one team’s jerseys when they played this week.

Robert Morris took on Cornell on Thursday night, eventually winning 86-76 to tighten their grip on the No. 1 seed in the Horizon League.

But eagle-eyed viewers watching the game on ESPN noticed a comical error had been made on the Robert Morris jerseys.

The error became particularly clear when guard Josh Omojafo prepared to take a free throw midway through the first quarter.

That’s because his jersey, instead of reading Robert Morris, actually read Morris Robert.

To compound matters for the Colonials, one teammate to his right had the correct jersey but another to his left had the incorrect version.

Fans quickly took to social media to troll the team over the error.

One posted: ‘RMU better fire their jersey guy’.

Another commented: ‘What in the world’ with a laughing emoji.

‘Robert Morris gotta be sick to his stomach,’ added a third. 

Despite the jersey confusion, Robert Morris went on to win and took their record to 5-2 for the season.

Omojafo was among six Colonials to score double digits as they put their Ivy League opponents to the sword.

Fortunately for Robert Morris they have plenty of time to sort their jerseys before their next game.

They don’t return to the court until Wednesday when they’ll take on Canisius.
