ColoradoHusk Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 First 4 players were announced this evening. Awarded to the toughest players, voted by their teammates. 1 - Kemp 2 - Gifford 4 - Reimer 7 - Sims 5 Quote Link to comment
MyBloodIsRed16 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 My only question is do they have to take the number? If they were like here you are #3 I would say I would like number 8 or I'm sticking with #16 Quote Link to comment

If they were like here you are #3 I would say I would like number 8 or I'm sticking with #16 I would imagine the players want to be in the single digits. They are probably voted as a guy who gets a single digit, and then the player chooses which number they want. Quote Link to comment
JWHusker Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 What are the players that cannot wear single digits going to do? Helmet decal? Jersey patch? Then does the single digit get taken or is it passed along to someone else? 1 Quote Link to comment

I also think the single digits are a year by year thing, so a player has to re-earn that number for the next season. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Also, am I completely lost or hasn’t the offense traditionally had white practice jerseys and the defense had red/black? Quote Link to comment

Those guys then picked the numbers they wanted. I like it. Got chosen you met "the standard". Pressure to continually perform and improve. https://247sports.com/college/nebraska/article/nebraska-football-single-digit-jersey-numbers-jeff-sims-billy-kemp-214053004/ 1 Quote Link to comment
