Quote:Here's my plan:


When you have a guy worthy enough, retire his number for the number of years that he played for the Jaguars. When the time expires, invite him back for a pre-game ceremony before the first home game when he turns the number over to the new kid at midfield.


Everybody cheers the old guy one last time as he walks off the field. Not a dry eye in the house.


Good example: Rashean Mathis- good player, local kid, etc...probably worthy of special treatment but nowhere close to the Ring of Honor. He was a Jaguar for 10 years- retire his number for 10 years.


Okay I actually think this is cool. The proverbial passing of the torch.

ABOUT US
The Jungle Forums is the Jaguars' biggest fan message board. Talking about the Jags since 2006, the Jungle was the team-endorsed home of all things Jaguars.

Since 2017, the Jungle is now independent of the team but still run by the same crew. We are here to support and discuss all things Jaguars and all things Duval!
