Single Digits...

[Husker1078]

FWIW... I was watching some Temple film a while back... I really liked watching their FB Nick Sharga, he ran really hard... After looking for a little more on him I came across the attached video that kinda explains Rhules mindset on single digits jerseys...

Pretty sweet. Nothing as cool as a bad dude wearing a single digit

This is cool. I wonder if he will do that here.

Looks like he is.
With huge roster turnover and massive amount of jersey number changes, it’s gonna take a while to recognize everyone out there.

It appears he has... TOS posted an article about it... It looks as if all the players who had a single digits last season have changed... Buford, Purdy, M Washington, Newsome, Hill, etc...

Yeah there is, how about a bad dude wearing a single digit who refers to himself in the 3rd person.

Lol…back in late 60s or early 70s, Bill Yeoman had some good football teams at the university of Houston. One year his three linebackers were #1, 2, 3.

So how do those single digit jerseys work? I know the players vote on them but how frequent is the vote? Can players lose their single digit jerseys every time a vote is taken? Are a certain amount set aside for offense and a certain amount for defense? Good questions to ask Rhule at his next presser.

Seems like a similar motivational practice to the Blackshirt tradition on Defense. I understand the motivational/pride factor but I also wonder if it also gets confusing if those numbers get swapped among players too often during a season.

I assume the vote is for the season.

So, if you are #99 you are the worst player on the team?

 

[Headcard]

Seems like others are also adopting a similar system. With a couple small differences, of course.

I know the other teams have their scouting reports anyway but if you’re signifying, there’s something special about the single-digit guys doesn’t that kind of help the opponent

They usually like two. Maybe three or four if they're really raring to go.
