Type of cheese for university sportsperson? (6,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oxford blue

'type of cheese' is the definition.
(I know that Oxford Blue is a type of blue cheese)

'university sportsperson?' is the wordplay.
'university' becomes 'Oxford' (Oxford is an example).
'sportsperson?' becomes 'blue' (I've seen this before).
'oxford'+'blue'='OXFORD BLUE'

'for' is the link.

(Another definition for oxford blue that I've seen is " Shade of navy -- talented university sportsperson".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
