Clayborn

what would Clayborn have to do for Iowa to retire his #94? Who was the last Hawkeye to have his number retired?

The only people that had their number retired are Calvin Jones, an All-American lineman that died in a plane crash #62, and Nile Kinnick, Heisman Trophy winner that died in a plane crash #24. AC will not have his number retired. Not if someone like Chuck Long didn't

So what are you saying, Adrian would have to be considered for the Heisman and then die in a plane crash for his number to be retired.

is that a question or a statement?

I think you're right ... he basically has to be as good a Suh was last year, then die tragically

 

[hawkeye2188]

Like others said, sadly he would have to die. If Ricky Stanzi won the heisman and say threw the game winning touchdown in the NC game i could see #12 being retired.

The bar is set incredibly high and that is okay with me.

Just wanted to add that Cal Jones wasn't just an All American. He was the Outland Trophy winner and the first African American recipient of that award. He also chose Iowa over Ohio State. (gotta love that)
