Our opinion on NU possibly retiring Suh's number, do you think it will happen?

I hope they do, but I doubt they do the permanent retired number one though.

 
His number will probably not be permantly retired, based on the #15 comparison, but you can bet that his name will be added to the ring of hall of famers at the north end of the stadium. He is about to bring home more hardware than some of those guys combined. :) That is an awesome list of names and his will be there SUUUUUUUUHn.

 
They will retire his jersey, not his number. Retiring the jersey is just to show how great of a player he was. Retiring a number actually means no one can wear the number again. #60 (Tom Novak) and #64 (Bob Brown) are the only retired numbers. Sixteen jerseys have been retired.

They're going to have to wait a month or two to do that. It's going to be smoking hot for a while after the game.

 
They won't retire the number...may frame the jersey and hang it somewhere kind of "semi-retiring" his jersey, but if they haven't retired #15, they better not retire #93. There has been other greats that didn't have their number retired either.

 
If they frame the jersey, I hope they use one he has been wearing in the game... so people can see how tore up it is from all the blatant holds.

Suh wouldn't ever want us to retire his number. He is too unselfish

 
I hope we keep the number. Stick it on a DL starter next year and watch QBs fall down pre-emptively ten yards behind the line of scrimmage before remembering that Suh graduated :)

I believe #20 is also retired.

 
I think 20 was, but brought back for his son, which did nothing to earn it.

I would imagine it is no longer retired.

 
Along the line of zoogies' thought: We should reserve #93 for our best defensive lineman. Make it a tradition.

 
I he takes down all the trophies he is up for yes retire the number and if he wins the Heisman we should also rename the state Ndamukong or House of Football Spears
