Don't think this has been announced yet and it is the slow season. So who gets #1? I'll go with Joseph Jones edging Warren Long.
Who gets the #1 Jersey this year?
- Thread starter Purple Pile Driver
- Start date
I vote for Matt Harris. He's fought through a lot. The injuries at Penn State last year and michigan this year. Would've thought his season would be done but he was back in a couple weeks. That's toughness.
How long has Fitz done #1? I only remember Cisek and Chapman. Who else has worn it?
I love a pick like Harris, personally. All things represented by the number (attitude, work ethic, character, 'Ideal Wildcat'-ness, basically) being equal, I prefer the number be on the field. Chapman may have been the first where that was the case, though I truly don't remember.

Johnson actually gets it every year. But he then passes it on to another player of his choosing. The jersey is actually called "Big Johnson" nowadays.
I think Matt Harris has the Big Johnson this year.
Didn't Ben Johnson wear jersey #1B for two or three years? Then there was some debate as to whether he should switch to 2B, 2B or not 2B, that was the question
Isn't it for the player who was the "workout warrior" of th offseason? If so I'd prefer odenigbo get it. He needs to have a huge year for us next year
Didn't Fitz also say that it goes to a senior? I was thinking of suggesting Corey Acker as my second choice after Hruby, but I think that he will be a junior.
Corey Acker could be the first junior in Wildcat history to be known as "The Big Johnson." In his spare time, he reads ancient fairy tales written in Sanskrit to blind squirrels and works on a cure for the Zika virus. When his vaccine is approved by the FDA as expected (it is based on enzymes found in common cabbage), Acker will be a very wealthy man. But he plans to donate all the profits from his endeavor to repaving Sheridan Road and providing clean underwear to every child in Winnetka.
Could they also repave the west lot? Actually my choice would go to the most important player that needs to have a outstanding year.........Clayton Thorson.
Are you serious? The west lot. He's not a miracle worker.
Funny you should bring that up, Willy. Your prayers may be answered...if the city of Evanston doesn't get in the way.
Rehab of West lot
Do you really think so? If you find it that amusing, it's a darn shame he never mentioned it before
Why do they need so much light? Are there vigilante bandits of disenfranchised suburban moms roaming the lots at night?
A university representative met with us in the lot last season and said that a re-paving plan was in the works. Didn't say anything about the lights, which would also be welcomed. Gee, doesn't Evanston just love the university.
The lights have to be bright enough to light up the Coke sign at the baseball field.
