    ...that you consider special? I know that at Michigan you have to be someone special to wear #1 - they even offer it to top recruits from time to time.

    Do we have any numbers that are becoming more and more associated with great players? What number would be special for LSU?

    I think that I will always remember Matt Mauck's #18, Bradie James' #11, Kevin Faulk's #3, Michael Clayton's #14, Josh Reed's #25 (passed on to Justin Vincent), maybe Skyler Green's #5 sticks out.

    I think it would be cool to have a number that becomes a tradition for great players to have the honor to wear.

    Not that this is a complaint, but I can usually count on you to change your picture every now and then - I guess you are sticking with Miss Spears for now?

    I think that 14 and 25 are becoming special numbers for us. The past 9 years have been good for #14. Herb Tyler (won alot of games as a starter), Josh Booty (I wasn't his biggest fan, but he did make 2nd team All Sec) and of course Michael Clayton (No explanation needed). #25 has a chance to have a really good 5-6 year run as well. Josh Reed (best season by a wr in major conference history) and Justin Vincent (a star on the rise). I'd like to see those two numbers passed down to only the best or possibly retired one day. Speaking of that, I wouldn't be against seeing #3 hung up for good. To me, K.Faulk made it cool for recruits to come to LSU again and he left as the all-time leading rusher and all-purpose leader for the SEC I think.
