Per Sean Callahan's Twitter:

@ndamukong_suh will have his jersey retired this season like every other major NU award winner. However just his jersey, not the number.

Thats awesome. I bet if he does amazing in the NFL they will retire his number at nebraska

Darn, so now the next guy named Suh can't be #93, huh.

Great news. Congratulations Suh! You earned it.

No, only Suh's jersey has been retired not his number. It's just an acknowledgement of his outstanding career at NU. Tommie Frazier had his jersey retired, but players can still wear #15. Only #60 (Tom Novak) and #64 (Bob Brown) are retired numbers.

Actually I believe they re-retired #20 in memory of Johnny Rodgers last year. Not sure on that, but Burkhead was 20 in high school and switched to 22, and Kunalic switched to #1.

Can a player named Frazier still wear #15, though? Just curious.

I would assume so since the jersey retirement is a symbolic gesture. Somebody named Frazier might not want to wear it though.

I think he was making a joke...

A Husker legend to be. The guy deserves it no doubt.

Great career and well deserved. Congrats to him :bonez . It will be fun to see how the next person who wears 93 responds to his legacy.
