Jersey No. 44 again used as promotional tool and again sparks rumors

Imo, not one kid outside of CNY cares about 44

Probably true...now. But if you are not going to use it on the field, use it to generate discussion and interest.

False, I have a wing-back on my football team who came in and wanted 44 after I gave him a copy of The Express. It still has value to people who have never heard about it.
 
A lot of kids may not understand it coming in, but it's a pretty easy explanation.

Some of the greatest backs in the history of college ball have worn that jersey.

This isn't something that is important to just SU, that jersey has significance in the history of college football.

i don't like this argument.

kids don't care about lots of stuff. you beat them over the head with it and they begin to care.

somehow the same teams are good over the years even though babies don't know or care about anything.

tradition needs to be taught, that's what tradition is
 
Kids outside of cny probably didn't care about it 20 years ago either. Doesn't mean it had any less value.

Millhouse makes a good point, especially since I work with 12 - 18 year olds.
 
Now that's a good-looking jersey.
