Are We Stopping the Duplicate Numbers Worn?

[CaneTheGaytors]

I see the new-school fans are up to their name calling and faqqotry again.

Relly makes a great point. The duplicate number **** has to go. It's ridiculous. You never, ever saw that with our legendary teams.

Can you imagine thinking of two legendary Canes from the same era as the same number? No, I didn't think so.

Quit living in the past it's not the 1980s or 1990s.

Shut up and go to your corner, Broke.

You think anyone takes anything that you say on this board seriously?

You should wish it was like the 80's or 90's. That's when we were raping the rest of college football at legendary levels.

It figures you would make an such an asinine statement.

You can't fix stupid.

Have watched many Canes games this year and last year and I've never heard commentators being so confused as to who's who on the team.

Burns and Walton both wear No. 1
Coley and Howard both wear No. 3
Berrios and AQM both wear No. 8
Waters and JRock both wear No. 6
Bush and Yearby both wear No. 2

I know there's a couple of more out there, but was there a reason why we had so many duplicate jersey numbers? I don't recall this happening under any other regime like it's been during Golden's tenure.

The solution is simple, simply add decimal numbers:

Burns gets 1, Walton 1.1
Coley 3, Howard 3.1
Berrios 8, AQM 8.1
Waters 6, JRock 6.1
Bush 2, Yearby 2.1

Numbers should be stripped from the jerseys entirely until the players earn them back.

You sound like an old *** man who is stuck on the past to me. Such a nostalgic person... It's 2015, uniforms or multi same number jerseys don't win games last time I checked. Never has and never will. Of all of the things to complain about like getting the defense and offensive play calling fixed, offensive line blocking correctly you choose to b*tch about this? Shut your simple minded *** up

This is a huge issue we need to fix before anything else

How about the "couples" player photos?

The offense, defense and offensive line blocking aren't the only things that need to be fixed. The entire culture that Alfredo installed for the last five years has to be cleansed.

From the employees to the training methods, to the stupid mantras and slogans, to the way practices are conducted, to the mindset of the players, to the coaching staff, to the duplicate number bullshyt, etc..

Everything that the Folden cancer infected the program with has to be removed. If not, the illness remains and can fester and grow.

You really can't be this dumb. I'm trying to throw you a life vest, man. But it's hard to help someone who doesn't want to help themself.

Classic! The pot calling the kettle black.

Are you going to fix the play calling, blocking, etc, by talking about it on an Internet message board?

You must be an INTERNET GAWD!!!

You might at least consider that jersey numbers might actually win games. Have you studied this thoroughly? Please report back, after your research.

No you can't be this dumb if you think what uniforms or #s the players wear have any effect on how we play. From the looks of it you don't need to throw that vest to anyone you need it to be honest

I want #7 . No I want #7 .

That's ok boys, you can both have #7 . Let's not cry about it anymore. Here have some ice cream.

C'MON MAAAAAN!
Dammitt I tried to purge this disgrace from my memory.
But you are absolutely correct. The NAMBLA Glamour Shots must go and those players should be cut.

That's pretty much what was going on w/ this regime.

Numbers should be stripped from the jerseys entirely until the players earn them back.

actually, that's exactly how things were done on my high school team. we had to earn our numbers. it was a team concept, first, then an individual concept was earned.

I think the OP has a valid point. The use of duplicate numbers among players who will actually play should be eliminated. There is always a chance that two guys with the same number could show up on special teams. A couple of injuries, and suddenly the situation arises. In any case, Golden is the one who made this routine among contributing players. I'd like to see it curtailed or eliminated.

What about the kid at FSU that wears Charlie Ward's retired 17 when he is on spc teams with the other number 8 on FSU

Really? Jeez. I grew up with the team in the 80s so I hate this trend of dupe numbers. It takes away from the value of the number, which for me, has more nostalgia to it.

See, Even though I've been a Canes fan for a minute, I'm still rather young, and I agree w/ you....the dup numbers does take away from the value of it and takes away from the nostalgia. I understand that dup numbers happen from time to time, but it appears we have the most out of any CFB team among scholly players. I don't recall that being this way under Coker or even Shannon. If I'm wrong, then I'm wrong...but I could swear that this trend start happening under Golden to appease players. Players should have to earn their numbers, especially if that number was worn by a former great Cane, imo.
