20 days to USC football: Historic Mike Garrett and the retired* No. 20

We’re less than three weeks away from the 2019 USC football season. The Trojans kick off against Fresno State a mere 20 days from now.

Or more accurately, Mike Garrett days from now. The Heisman winner quite literally owns the No. 20 in USC lore.

Let’s dive into the number, shall we?

Who wore it best?

There’s no question. It’s Mike Garrett. The number became the first to ever be retired by the school after Garrett finished his historic career with the Trojans as a two-time All-American tailback, and the winner of the 1965 Heisman Trophy.
