Villanova to retire Josh Hart’s jersey on Jan. 19

It just felt like yesterday when Josh Hart donned the blue and white and enjoyed a decorated career on the Main Line.

Now, he’s in the NBA with the New Orleans Pelicans, but as the old saying goes, “Once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat,” and he’ll be enshrined with some of the other greats that came through the program.

On Thursday afternoon, Villanova announced that it will be retiring Hart’s jersey on Jan. 19, during halftime of the Marquette game.

The 6-foot-5 guard played from 2013-17, and was one of the key catalysts in the Wildcats’ run to a national title in 2016.
