bobbyake Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 i couldn't find anything wrong. There was a random guy in the picture but he could have been the one to hand off the wheel. None of the students knew where it was. They stormed Can't's bench looking for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UADavid Posted September 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 It's Parris McNeal, not C. J. Jackson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zip81 Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 That's what I think anyway. I was thinking that too.I've compared the pictures.The guy holding the wheel looks a little thick to be Jackson.I compared everything, even down to the clear face mask plastic.But now that someone else has said it, I think you may be right.Why do the Zips have two 7's?I'm surprised the conference allows that.

bobbyake Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 you're right. Look at the face mask. That's an easy mistake to make though because they both share the same number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbyake Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 look at it this way. Buying a #7 jersey gives you more for your money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UADavid Posted September 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Most Qb's don't wear the gloves of db's or the forearm band. Too easy to lose the ball. A bad call by the bj in my opinion. I like where they put zips beat writer DLM's article. Looks like martin doesn't think the zips contributed at all to his teams loss.

zip81 Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 You make the call!Looks different to me. Check out the highest bar in his face mask.Jackson only has one. McNeal has two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyzip84 Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 BJ referred to the #7 raising the wheel as CJ, when it was obviously Paris McNeal. I noticed it 1st thing this morning too. I figured a number of you would catch it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you serious? Look at every roster in the country and you will find multiple numbers. They just can not be on the field at the same time. Akron has many multiple numbers as does every school in the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya know Sarg, I've been watching High School and college ball on and off for 30 years....I've never seen multiple numbers on a roster...and I saw a lot of rosters when I was doing play by play...

Z.I.P. Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 Here's another related interesting fact that I had not known until earlier this year: The NCAA does not have any limit on how many players a team can have on their team or roster. The only limits are for scholarships, travel squads, and apparently training camp. Before the start of this season, one of the papers in Honolulu mentioned that after the official end of camp, the University of Hawaii added several players to their team, bringing the total number to over a hundred.

you am i Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 duplicate numbers are given to players who are not likely to see a lot of game time. those players usually don't travel with the team so its only an issue for home games. as mentioned, players with the same number cannot be on the field at the same time. almost always the numbers are split between an offensive player and a defensive player. i'll give the abj a pass on this one. that's a perfectly understandable mistake.i never really thought about it much until i started reading what people said on this site, but they really do play up osu like they're the home team while akron and fkent get page 4 treatment. its ridiculous.
