Well, Rich Rodriguez has allegedly given out the precious #1 to a DB instead of a WR. Former Michigan alum C[H]ris Carter apparently has issue with it:

They say...people will resort to saying things they know aren't true when they are desperate.

I heard about this the other day and thought it was silly. It's just a damn number for chrissakes.

I thought someone might catch on...

Yes, the #1 jersey is being defended by Carter and Edwards...understandable on their part, although I'd argue the nature of the "tradition" around it.

However, the funny thing in this article, from WVU area, is that the writer is so jaded and in a hurry to prod at Michigan that he missed two critically important facts.

1. It's Cris Carter, not Chris Carter. Cris went to Ohio State, not Michigan.

2. It's Anthony Carter who was the first highly touted #1 wearer.

It's a ridiculous oversight. Comical though.

Shades of Bill Callahan, destroying tradition in the name of change!
