The word from a Baton Rouge merch store that ordered a shite ton of #13 jerseys, is that Nuss assured them he's staying 13. I believe it, because I believe in capitalism... it's the American way. I hope Whit Weeks gets 18.

One could argue it is. In the era of transfer portal- most of these kids won’t appreciate the significance unless they’ve followed LSU football since they were a kid.

I would argue 7 means more to this day and age of players. Tyrann Mathieu and Patrick Peterson were not just LSU stars they were superstars in the college football landscape.

I could anrgue against this. This became manufactured when O gave it to the receiver coming in form tech. It’s been a huge hit or miss with who gets and wears 7 whereas 18 was started by a leader and given down to who he thinks is a leader. 7 is the swag number, mostly manufactured. Not to deny PP and HB weren’t awesome in those numbers but if the 2 numbers 7 is most definitely the generated one off of “swag” level.

I got the chance to briefly meet Josh Williams last year after his monster game against Vanderbilt. He’s a very polite and humble young man. Glad he had 18 last year


I believe his degree was in marketing. I would love to see LSU bring him into the Athletic Dept in some capacity in the future.

Gilbert has been absent from practice. It makes one wonder are we about to get a special announcement soon. He is a great young man.

Yes I guess… I don’t like manufactured stuff like that though…

Maybe I’m in the minority… or maybe 2 too many fingers of

I hate dumbass thinking like this. How do you think anything becomes a tradition? Was the #18 jersey not passed down by players on their own to begin with?

Hopefully it is not Gilbert because I don’t want to fight all of you returning your #er 13 Jerseys!

Or may be they will be more valuable now as a collectibal I am not sure
