I read somewhere in the last few days Coleman was seen wearing a number other than #15. #81 or #89 - maybe, but can't remember where I saw it.

Defense rules.
New honorees of the peer-led vote include linebacker Jimari Butler (No. 1), and defensive backs Marques Buford (No. 3), Tommi Hill (No. 6), and Malcolm Hartzog (No. 7).

Banks is only offensive player.

I had a thought.
Rhule says they get to keep the # their whole career once earning it.
I’m not gonna do the math but once this has been in place a full 4 years, the # of new players getting them will be pretty small. Even if there’s a new great player they may not get a chance at it until they’re a junior.
Maybe that’s perfect. But I’m wonder at that point if they’d think of increasing it. They could have 20 single digit jerseys if they wanted to.
Right now are single digits off limits for the opposing side? E.g. if a DB has #1 does that mean there is no #1 on the offense? Or does it just mean the #1 on offense wasn’t voted on? I assume it’s the former and they are off limits.

My understanding is that there are only the 9 and there are no doubling up on single digits.

Ya it should be limited. But this will probably turn into a 2-3 per year thing since they can’t lose the # after getting it once.

Should be earned, the Single Digit.
Just like a Blackshirt.
the difference is, the Team votes on Singles…per year. This year it’s 9 Defenders. Next year could be 7 Offensive players.
Blackshirts should be a pedigree of excellence on the field and time honored for the select few who embody a legacy of tenacity, relentless pursuit, bone crushing hits, and leadership solely on Defense.
long live the Blacksirts, celebrate the Single Digits.
