I was always under the impression, that the team voted on who got to wear it. Maybe I'm wrong but, it seems as if Coach O has taken this overcompletely. Is this a good idea? I'm interested to ser everyones opinion on this?

SIAP, he has now handed out and #18 to JD Moore. This is not about who got the jersey, it's about the process as to how its now being determined.

No one cares. It's just a number

Both deserved it and I'm sure the selection committee wanted to buck the trend

Dumb because not all players are allowed to wear the number (OL).

O offered it to LaCouture to get him to come back to school this year. I think Moore was going to get it if they had the normal team vote, but anyway.... Two great guys.

Considering it started out with the former wearer giving it to the next, does it really matter since it left that rule?

I believe you're confused with #7.

It does, why? Because you disapprove of Coach Eaux?

For you information, Christian LaCouture woke up yesterday morning and decided he wanted to share the #18 with JD. LaCouture felt Moore was deserving of the number. Christian got up in front of the whole team and awarded JD the jersey. The whole team gave JD a standing ovation signaling their approval of the move by LaCouture. JD was emotional and you could tell it meant a lot to him. This tells a lot about Christian's leadership.

The Coach Eaux video at the top of the page in this link begins with the story of the two number 18's.

Not at all. The 18 started with Hester giving his number to Dickson.

Committee of the former 18s and the coach decide who wears it next. Lac was the one who came up with the idea to let JD share it.
