Jersey Numbers

[grant]

What do we think Baze, Carey, and Buddy will wear? I know it is a long ways away but still very curious. Saw that Carey wore 5 in high school, Buddy wore 14 and 35, and Baze has worn a multitude of different numbers. I think Carey will end up with 5, Baze could wear 1, and I have no idea for Buddy. Would love to hear other opinions on this

um New York numbers?

 

[Shark58]

i thought this was going to be about what exits Roberson, Battle & DeVito lived off of...

It would be cool to see Buddy wear #35 like his Dad but Sidibe would need to change numbers.

 

[rrlbees]

Carey 5, Baz 44, Boeheim 35.

 

[RF2044]

Carey 5, Baz 44, Boeheim 35.

I'd love to see Baz with 44.

I'd love to see Baz with 44.

how would that work? combined blessing of JB/DC?

He probably just needs to ask for it.

isn't it one of the #s hanging in the dome?

The only number JB wouldn’t issue again is 22. Cause of Bing.

I think any of the other retired numbers can be worn fine.

I think we should put a patch on the jersey for anytime a player wears a jersey up in the rafters with that player’s name on the front of the jersey.
So if a player wears #4 there is a Rony Seikaly patch on the front.

We retire "jerseys" not "numbers".

#20 is hanging, but Lydon wore it.

#4 is hanging, but Gillon wore it.

If Baze wants #44, I don't think Danny Schayes will mind.

I like the patch idea, but I think if one player has a patch there's probably some uniform rule that all players have to have the same patch.

I know for football you can put patches.
Michigan did this for their retired jerseys to honor the players who worn them before.

Agree, nobody will wear the Pearl's number again.

He might even give Baze an autograph.

 

[pearl31]

He might even give Baze an autograph.

:rolling:

That one will never not be funny.

 

[Briancuse]

I think it would be funny if buddy wore his dads age on his jersey.

Only Yankee pitchers in Spring Training get numbers that high.

 

[cliftonparksufan]

Only Yankee pitchers in Spring Training get numbers that high.

Or NFL quarterbacks who get invites to Yankee Spring Training.

Haha I was merely asking if anyone had the insight track on it. They could wear 97,98,99 and I would not care! Worry seems a bit excessive doesn't it?

I think you mean 53, 54, and 55.
