I think we offered pretty early. We were definitely in on him before Self.

He's really whipping the ku fanbase into a frenzy, they can't get enough of him. Check out how packed the 18,000 seat Sprint Center looked 13 minutes before tip off

This isn't just about McLemore, and I may piss off some of the supaSutton lovers, but why would a basketball player ever wear #23? It should be retired from the sport of basketball. When I think of #0, I will always think of Pullen. Even KU fans will think of him instead of Gooden, because he made he made a name for his number. I will never see #23 and think of anyone besides MJ. No one will. I hated Lebron before he changed to #6. I don't see why anyone would want to live in that shadow.

9 or 99 in hockey.  In soccer numbers are somewhat associated with positions, so lots of #9's and #10's there too.

I don't think any player in any sport is held in as high of regard as MJ. No one could agree on who the best football player of all time is. Or soccer, or baseball, etc. So what I'm getting at is no.

This would be relevant if he had a jersey number. Why don't you go ahead and leave sports talk to the big boys?

They don't really retire many numbers in soccer. Pre-1990s numbers were assigned by which position you played and changed if you switched positions or someone else played for you. Some clubs have done it for players that died during their careers.
