Apologies if this detail has been discussed as part of the large conversation, but did anyone else catch the subtle nod during the recent (March 7th) "surprise" for the White House tour group of children? [NBC News]

No, I'm not talking about Trump purposefully standing in front of a portrait of Clinton, arms stretched out like the "Scale of Justice" [Link]
-
No, not that the tour group happened to be a huge group of children [Link]
-
And no, not the so-called "666" / "I'm OKAY" sign flashed by the kid Trump "chooses" to come up with him for the photo op. [Link]
I'm talking about the sweatshirt. The team. The LIONS. As in Penn State Nittany Lions, you know, the football team coached by Jo Paterno and Jerry Sandusky. THAT'S the jersey worn by a child chosen at whim to stand in front of a portrait of Clinton in a safe embrace by the Orange Monster -- [Yeah, I can hate the guy and still respect his game and plays. It's called being a critical thinker.]
This may help explain why Sandusky Sr. was transferred OUT of a maximum security prison to a safer, more comfortable place. [USA Today]
Fingers crossed. The noose is tightening.

This is not a Penn State sweatshirt.
1) Penn State goes by the Nittany Lions. I go to Pitt just a couple of hours away and I've never heard anybody refer to them as the lions. If somebody wants to shorten the name, they simply say "State".
2) Those are not Penn State's colors. Penn State's colors are blue and white. No gold.
3) That's not Penn States logo.
There are plenty of high schools and small colleges out there who have Lions as their mascot. Here is one example:

If you can find one example of a Penn State sweatshirt being sold online referring to them as they lions, having gold as one of their colors, or having that as their logo I will agree with you.
Until then, please stop claiming this is a Penn State sweatshirt.

Appreciate your feedback. If you notice, though, I never said it was a Penn State sweatshirt. Not sure where that got added to the observations...

Maybe I'm reading too much into it but here's what you said:
