List of NCAA men's basketball retired numbers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Teams in the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) retire jersey numbers of players who either are considered by the team to have made significant contributions to that team's success, or who have experienced untimely deaths during their playing career. As with other leagues, once a team retires a player's jersey number, it never issues the number to any other player, unless the player or team explicitly allows it.

History

Since NCAA teams began retiring numbers, many players have had their jersey number retired. Murray State University has the most retired numbers among Division I programs, with 15. Unlike professional leagues, no one player has had his number retired by two teams.

Some programs such as Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Syracuse,[1] Oklahoma State, Georgetown, Stanford, Maryland, or Baylor, have not officially retired jersey numbers yet. Unlike major sports leagues in the United States such as the NBA (which retired Bill Russell's number 6), MLB (which retired Jackie Robinson's number 42), and the NHL (which did so for Wayne Gretzky's 99), the NCAA has never retired a jersey number league-wide in honor of anyone.

Nevertheless, there are some cases of retirement of a same number honoring two different players, such as the University of Texas at El Paso, which retired number 14 worn first by Bobby Joe Hill (1961–1966) and then by Nate "Tiny" Archibald (1967–70).[2]

    Robinson never wore the number 42 in any of the three team sports he played while at UCLA—baseball, basketball, or football. UCLA chose to retire #42 across all of its sports (adding him as a second honored #42 in men's basketball) because of the number's indelible identification with Robinson, that having been the number he wore during his Hall of Fame baseball career with the Brooklyn Dodgers.[265]
