I think we might need to just retire the number across the board. I can't think of another school that has had so many legendary athletes across multiple sports all wear the same number. It's unreal.

I don't like retiring numbers. I'd rather it be an earned honor. Or let somebody where a patch or something with 15 if they want to keep their actual number.

This.

It's celebrates the number. Retiring it makes people forget.

That's a good thought. Somewhat like A&M does with 12 in football ... nobody gets 15 as a permanent number, but gets to wear it as a special honor ... in all sports.

Perhaps someone needs to suggest it to Cohen.

I think you have to be a transformative player. All 4 sports should hold that number for a true baller and good person. Either that or retire it.

The first "15" to lead us to a National Championship in any sport gets statue #3 outside the appropriate field of play. Hail State!

True. BTW, is the display of Keifer #21 and Rodney Stowers #97 still in the players' gameday locker room?

Are you crazy? We need more no. 15s in the future, not end the trend.
