[QUOTE="ThatGuy, post: 956563, member: 3440"] Right. Who knows? I know a lot of kids liked the lower jersey numbers, but not sure if that's a "thing," or if it's just "first come, first served" now. Re: the # of dupes, I do remember that in 2020 the NCAA changed the rule re: duplicate jersey numbers. Previously, they had allowed duplicate numbers on one team, but required players to not be on the field at the same time - in 2020, that restriction remained, AND the numbers were restricted to [URL='https://nsga.org/news/ncaa-football-jersey-rule-changes-for-2020-season/']only 1 player on each side of the ball[/URL]. Apparently, a number of programs had duplicate jersey numbers on the same side of the field, but would just sub out players and not have them on the field at the same time. This was confusing to both opposing teams and announcers, I'm sure. Still, that doesn't say anything about why there would be more duplicate jersey numbers than there were in the past. No idea why that would be. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (Also, get off my lawn.) :LOL: [/QUOTE]
