"Miami Dolphins linebacker Channing Crowder clarified his recent comments about selling game jerseys in college, which has caused quite a stir the past couple days.

"You know how big that blew up -- that was hilarious," Crowder told Miami radio station WQAM (560-AM) on Tuesday. "I was trying to say that if you wanted to make money off your name -- why couldn't you make money off your name? And they put it out there like they want to have an investigation on the University of Florida now.

"I said hypothetically twice [Sunday]. I said, hypothetically, if I didn't have any more of my jerseys because let's say, hypothetically, some wealthy businessmen liked my play at Florida . . . and they took it and ran off with it.

"As a matter of fact, I think so highly of myself and my mom thinks highly of me so I can't sell any of my jerseys. I've got to keep them all."

Crowder discussed the subject Sunday during the debut of his new two-hour weekly talk show on WQAM. He said college players should be able to sell their game jerseys -- something he hinted he "hypothetically" did when he played for the Florida Gators. He said hypothetically he didn't have any of his Florida jerseys, because some Jacksonville businessmen really liked his play."
