Default Newcomer jersey numbers, per Tommy G

Twitter post by Tom Gelehrter: Incoming #Bearcats BBall Numbers: J. Davis-0, O. Ellis-2, S. Thomas-11, C Mbodj-13, G. Guyn-14, J. Sanders-15


Random thoughts:

0 – When was the last time we had a 0? I can think of maybe Art Long being 00, I think. Seems like a funny number.

2 – Can’t remember the last time we had a big with #2. I feel like most of UC’s forwards go with higher numbers.

Yes, that is true, haha. Since Kenyon played here, Eugene Land (00), Jamaal Davis (1), Derek Hollman (5), and Justin Jackson (5) might have been the only big guys with low numbers.

Also, in the last 10 years - Field Williams, Domonic Tilford and Eddie Tyree have worn #2

Wasn't Kevin Gaffney also a 0 or 00 in the late 70's early 80's. Alway remember him for scoring at the wrong basket against Virgina Tech I think.

Yes, Gaffney wore 00 and, yes, he scored a put-back for the Hokies off a missed free throw in a 40-point blowout in Blacksburg during the bleak days of the Ed Badger era.

Didn't Ron Allen wear 0 during his senior year? It seems familiar to me.

I think Ron Allen was 23. 0 was his 3-point shooting percentage.

I'm a little disappointed, i would think Octavious Ellis would go for "0". Natural marketing link! First college marketing lesson.
