Who should wear Ron Kramer's #87 Saturday?

Yes, he can.  Any player wearing a pass eligible number (which 87 clearly is) can line up at any pass eligible postion (which fullback definitely is) without having to report as eligible to the officials.  So, while highly unorthodox for a FB to wear a number in the 80's, it's absolutely legal.

For the most part when it comes to uniform numbers, while there is a list of what positions should wear what number range, it's more of a suggestion as pretty much anyone can wear any number.  The only real issue is players wearing 50-79 and 90-99 have to report as eligible on every offensive play they're in a pass eligible position.

That's what I was thinking and it would also offer an excuse to throw to him, which I think is a part of his game that has been overlooked. I would love to see him on more flare and wheel routes.

Or another way to split them: make Roundtree wear 27 and Funchess 81

On the helmet numbers if they brings them back for the Bowl Game.

Foreva eva?

Hopkins or Roh are both good options.It's a shame nobody really successfully goes out for two sports anymore. Kelvin Grady was the last to sort of do it, but he was a star at neither. If any player were a big part of both teams, they'd be a shoe in.

They are the same people who threw a fit when Michigan renovated Michigan Stadium in 2007.

Nobody is opposed to our athletic department making money.  But there are two questions: the tradeoff between money and dignity, and the tradeoff between short-term profits and long-term value.

We could sell the naming rights to the stadium, without a doubt, and make even more money.  But it wouldn't be right for such a storied program to play in Dominos Field at Little Caesars Stadium or something like that.  At some point, the class and dignity of the program is worth more than a moderate financial gain.  It's a matter of individual opinion whether things like wearing 6 different jerseys in one season or unretiring numbers get close to this line, but they're at least part of the discussion.

Also to be considered is whether the emphasis on short-term profits hurts the long-term value of the program.  Schools like Michigan, Alabama, Ohio State, and Texas have a lot of intangible value associated with their program's image as a traditional power.  You can look back decades at star players from each of these schools, wearing more or less the same uniform that today's players are wearing, and feel a connection.  Retired numbers are part of that.  I remember going to Michigan Stadium when I was nine years old and seeing Tom Harmon's name in the program as a number that would never be worn again, and wondering what it would have been like to see him play if he was so good that no one would ever be worthy of wearing #98 again.  That is a mystique that nouveau riche programs don't have, and it's certainly worth something (even if you only care to look at finances).  It's also a matter of individual opinion whether seeing that number again with a jersey patch explaining its history is a better or worse way of recognizing our program's tradition, but again, this must be part of the discussion.

I don't think you can see me, but I'm giving you a standing slow clap right now...
