Not JUST because he tragically died young, but because he passed while still playing for LSU.

Ok, so your standard would be if a player dies while at LSU, he gets his number retired? So I guess you would support the retirement of Naeshall Menard's number? He was the LSU football player who killed himself his junior year in 1998.

You can't just retire someone's number just because they died young while playing at LSU. You can certainly honor that person in other ways, but number retirement is the ultimate honor saved only for the greatest players in their sport who have very special accomplishments. Wally has not earned that honor.
