Earn Your Single Digit: lowest roster number is #10

[Uncle Buck]

I'd also take the kicker making even 10 percent of those. I feel like the season will be somewhat successful with 600+ points being scored.

Have we ever scored 600 points in a season?
On a 12 game season, that's 50 points per game.

I remember for the 2997 season predictions thread, I predicted a 5-7 record, scoring 450 points. I was ridiculed. No way we score that much, and have that record. I was pretty damn close
Edit
That would be the 2007 season, lol fat fingers

What if there are 20 guys chasing 10 numbers … how do you handle?

Would love to see one number reserved for a walk-on.

Split them to offense and defense.

No he's not. Stop spreading lies as facts. If you think he's going to Ga., fine, but he isn't a lock anywhere right now.

Pal, it’s a lock. Look me up on signing day for confirmation.

You'll be looking for that pot o gold at the end of the rainbow, lad.

Pal, I’ll be looking at another national championship, while you will be shivering at the pinstripe bowl if you’re lucky.

You're willing to bet your voting privileges here on it? I think that's a great idea. If he doesn't go to GA. You stop posting.

New poll idea- would you rather land Raiola or lose Matlock?

That would be a very close poll.

Not a fan of this. All depends on how they eventually get distributed I guess. Single digits are certainly the “thing” right now so I can see the incentive angle but at what point do you pull the OL numbers? Jim Otto would be in raged right now if Al Davis pulled this stunt. Be very interesting how this is handled. Are the players gonna be deciding who is having the best practices as well?

This isn't the NFL. So I don't think you need to worry about the players feelings.

Leave it to Deion to take a good idea too far. Nobody gets #0 because Deion thinks no one should want #0. Deion is giving out #1. All about Deion...

Deion is taking the concept further - making everybody earn their number.

Which is stupid, because no matter how crappy you are, everybody has to have a number by game day. It's literally an NCAA rule. You can't trot out wearing numberless jerseys.

This is a perfect illustration of how to set up small incentives and rewards. Rhule understands that creating a limited supply will increase competition. Deion doesn't get that everybody will eventually be handed a number, regardless of their crap level.

If I can figure that out in 15 seconds, I expect all the kids on Deion's roster are already hip to the fact that they can just laze through practices and still get a number assigned to them.

Everyone except his son who gets the #2. I have a feeling this will come back to bite him, he's been putting his son on a pedestal since he got there.
