Mark Fletcher Jr.'s mom receives heartwarming gift from Michael Irvin

With the explosion of conference expansion in recent years, it can be harder than ever for friends and family of college football players to attend games in person due to the increased geographic ground to cover.

Miami running back Mark Fletcher Jr.’s mom Linda makes it a priority to get to her son’s games, but has a notable dislike for flying. Her commute to Hurricanes games just got a whole lot more comfortable thanks to former Miami wide receiver Michael Irvin.

Irvin presented Linda Fletcher with a custom Miami Hurricanes RV that will take her across the country in style this season. The top of the RV reads “Fetching Fletchers”, and is outfitted with the white, orange and green colors of the Hurricanes’ jerseys.
