I think we should also pass down Burrow's #9. And Mettenberger's #8. And Josh Reed's #25. And Hodson's #13.

Hell no. The jersey number stuff needs to stop. Like everything else it has been watered down and doesn’t mean what it once did. Example is Giles #7. The only jersey number that is still worthy is Chucky Mullins number #38 at Ole Miss

Before long every number is gonna be passed down or given out.

7 and 18 are all we need. Everything else is retirement or just nothing...

Great idea. the other posters don't understand that there are things that are bigger than bucks and that he isn't throwing away money, he's delaying gratification. The younger generations have no idea of the concept.

40 = Dedication...

Not a horrible idea if we get rid of one of the other number things

Enough of the jersey shite. That tradition died when Giles switched numbers. Move on.

I think he is what made 40 special. Serious questions, how long do you have to wait to retire a jersey in the stadium? Not eliminate the number from use, but have it up like the rest.

How about we compete for wins each season rather than obsess over who wears a certain jersey number?
