It’s Time For Marquette Men’s Basketball To Start Retiring Numbers Again

On Thursday, the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel officially approved and announced several rule changes that will go into effect for the 2023-24 Division 1 men’s college basketball season. There’s a lot of them — 12 in total, in fact — including a tweak to the block/charge rule — that are perhaps interesting to discuss and poke at and pick apart. Go read the press release for all of that if you’re interested.

However, there is one rule change that is of particular interest for Marquette fans, and I quote: Players will be allowed to wear numbers 0-99.
