Oracle: Time to retire Numbers

[BullsOnParadeTG]

What are your thoughts?

I think we wait until we have an OCS to display the retired numbers at.

The first retired number should be Selvie. I say retire all 3.

I agree. Then add Marlon Mack and JPP

Never have been a fan of retiring numbers. Sometimes it gets ridiculous (see Boston Celtics). Instead do the ring of honor thingy or hang a banner of the player. The number belongs to the team (players come and go) not the player.

Celtics lost me when they retired KG's number. 6 years is all that it takes?

I agree what a joke. It looks like it is more of an attempt for team PR.

The Rays retired Wade Boggs' number.

You’re joking right?

Are we retiring numbers based on what they did while at USF or are we retiring them for what they did after USF?

Nope. He played two seasons (1998-99) with them and they retired his number. They retired his number the beginning of the following season (2000).

Wow any semblance of respect I had for the Rays just hit the crapper...

No way on JPP. he played 1 year here. Marlon Mack is a solid maybe in my book. I would honestly say Andre Hall was a better USF Bull than Mack but it is close.
