Retire the jersey, not the number.
If you retire numbers, given enough time, there won't be enough left to field a team.
 
The kid that gets Ford's 48 better bring a damn truckload of integrity and character.

and I'm a democrat

And due to NCAA rules, #48 can't be a center. There needs to be some sort of waiver for this.
 
So, Michigan is now doing what Syracuse University decided to do in 1957 - honor the athlete who made the number famous by handing it down to a worthy successor.

You're right.

No. 44 should be brought back and should be a legacy jersey in the way it was intended to be.

Once we have someone worthy to give it to, it will be back.
