If it's retired, it's retired. Apparently USC has asked their Heisman Trophy winning alum Matt Leinart to let an incoming player wear his number multiple times...
quote:

“There have been multiple times where people at USC have asked me if I would un-retire my jersey for some five-star prospect,” Leinart said. “And do you want to know what I told those guys straight up? I said absolutely f****** not. I am never going to un-retire my jersey for some random dude who, by the way, now could wear number 11 and transfer after a year.”

quote:

“That kid, probably the chance of him staying at USC in two years is slim anyway,” Leinart said. “So it ain’t happening, bro. I’m keeping that up there forever. And you can call me selfish. I don’t give a s***.”

Pre transfer portal, I would see this as an honor. Now, I agree with him that
the guy might be there a year and transfer

Retiring numbers is dumb anyway.
