You’d be viewed as insensitive and making a mockery. Even though it’s supported by Jake himself and made by Jews, people around you don’t know that (certainly most people outside Utah County don’t)

Not awkward unless you make it awkward.

A little odd, but hey I guess it's a good cause.

I really like it, but I'd only wear it to a BYU game

I like the font on the rabbi's BYU sweatshirt. Where can I purchase that one?

First thing that came to mind for me as well.

Not the same thing. Nobody is worried about offending the local Jewish community

Duke Silver

Exactly, on the list of things that are currently causing Jews harm this T-shirt wouldn't even be on the list.

How many non-LDS people would be comfortable wearing a “Mormon” shirt in public?

Or, as Indiana Jones would say, "In Hebrew, Jew is spelt with a Yod."

I learned this last year who my actual great-grandfather is, and it turns out he's Jewish. I guess I should get one.

I am not against this at all, but I am curious if BYU agreed to allow this.

Could you imagine if JR ever ended up at Utah through the transfer portal?

Trib headline “BYU fans burn jew shirts in protest of their QB.”

Are you purposely trying to make things weird?

I'm done with the weirdos that are trying to make this awkward.

This isn’t as bad as you’re all making it out to be. I’ve seen a lot worse…

Short answer: QB's the storied position at Mormon BYU. Many Americans would find that very odd & interesting. Also,
