Start making those flash cards because the Cream and Crimson finally have numbers, according to the roster on IUHoosiers.com. With 11 new faces on the team, you might as well start learning the numbers now, and it is never to early to place an order for a No. 40 jersey (Tijan Jobe) at the Varsity Shop. Malik Story is the only incoming player who hasn't been assigned a number, but he told me in June that he has worn "34" since the sixth grade and also likes "22," both of which are available.
For those who cheered on D.J. White the last four years while wearing a "3" jersey, you are now a proud owner of a Daniel Moore jersey. For the others banking on four years of Jordan Crawford, Jeremiah Rivers is the new No. 5 on the squad, while Nick Williams (#20- A.J. Ratliff), Kory Barnett (#24- Brandon McGee), Matt Roth (#30- Mike White) and Broderick Lewis (#32- Eli Holman) have also taken on numbers worn by players on the 2007-08 roster. In case you are wondering, your No. 4 Brett Finkelmeier and No. 44 Kyle Taber jerseys are still in good shape.
