Mertz needs to freshen up his LinkedIn page and his resume. He's not getting this job back. I think he has his COVID year to use so he may have another year to play.

Been hearing advertisements for that place nonstop on the radio, but I’m not driving up to Frisco. Gross.

Mertz was terrible at Wisconsin so not surprised we’re here.

If not for the hype he had as a recruit, Mertz would be at a MAC school right now.

Does that mean Caleb’s number is retired?
I get he won a heisman but retiring his number?

Yup. Number 13 is retired.

Just realized I didn’t answer your second question.
USC retires every Heisman winners jersey number. There are other special numbers that are only specially allocated to players (#55, #35) but the Heisman numbers are retired.

I got ya. Makes sense if they do it with all the heisman numbers. I didn’t put that together in the picture you posted at first

But isn't there a player on the roster now wearing 13? I saw it in the LSU game.
Wasn't Mason Cobb wearing 13?

Yeah he’s gonna be the last person to wear it

Why? NBA has done that. And Cobb was on the team with Caleb both wearing 13.

Fair, but he joined after Caleb won the Heisman or the same year?

The year after. Caleb gave him the ok to wear 13 knowing it would be retired after he left.
I also think Caleb is the type of person to not be a jerk about giving permission to wear his jersey. See Palmer allowing Addison to wear #3 and Mike Garrett signing off on Darnell Bing wearing #20.
