Kevin Plank played college football at which university?

Kevin Plank played college football at the University of Maryland.

Plank attended the University of Maryland, College Park, and walked onto its football team rather than arriving as a highly recruited star. He graduated in 1996 with a bachelor’s degree in business administration. His experience as a football player helped shape his understanding of athletic clothing and the discomfort caused by sweat-soaked cotton shirts.

After college, Plank founded Under Armour in 1996. The company’s early breakthrough came from a moisture-wicking compression shirt designed to keep athletes drier during activity. That product idea grew from Plank’s own frustration with changing sweaty T-shirts during football practices.

The school’s full modern name is the University of Maryland, College Park, but quiz answers commonly shorten it to the University of Maryland. The other choices are unrelated to Plank’s college football career; he did not play at Michigan, Texas, or Virginia.
