Moncrief will have his retired 32 hung in the rafters (it never made it over from Barnhill) during a game next year.

Corliss will be the 2nd player to have his number retired. I can not recall anyone wearing that number since like it was effectively retired, now its official.

A 390 banner will be hung for the amount of wins Nolan had.

While they are up there hanging these I wouldn't mind a rearrangement take place and "clean" things up a bit.

Wouldn't mind a "ring of honor" type deal with the Names/jerseys of former players hung, but separate of the Retired #32 and #34.

Thoughts?

Thought 1: Maybe this means they can take down 4 of the 5 championship banners that they have hanging. It looks freaking stupid.


Thought 2: Maybe this means they can take down the NCAA Tournament Appearance banners, because they also look freaking stupid.

Who downvoted that? You really think we should have FIVE of the exact same championship banner?

I agree with your premise. I was in BWA for the first time in a few years yesterday and I was looking for the '94 Championship banner during pregame. I looked up and was like "there it is. Oh, there's another one. Wait, there's another one....huh?"

It's so freaking cluttered up there. Granted, good problem to have, but they definitely need to reorganize.
