Message: [QUOTE="cuse309, post: 2319724, member: 5119"] I just find it hard to believe that #44 would be much of a carrot to dangle to a 17 year old who wasn't even alive when Rob Konrad last wore it. The kid wouldn't even know who Rob Konrad was. They better know who J.B., .L., and E.D. are, but those guys played ball before color t.v. In 1996-1997 I was a senior in high school. It would be like a recruiter telling me if I went to "X" school, I could have "X" number just like the last guy that wore it in 1975. Or I could get number "X" just like those well known guys that wore it back in the 1910's and 1920's. It's ancient history to a kid. Sorry, but that just wouldn't matter to me. That's just me. Maybe I'm wrong, and maybe some stud athlete would care, but I highly doubt it. [/QUOTE]
