CATS - BY THE NUMBERS: WHO IS THE VERY BEST? - #30

In sports one of the highest honors a player can recieve is to have his number retired, never to be used again. In Chicago there will be no more #23 for the Bulls, no #3 in New York for the Yankees, or #13 in Miami for the Dolphins. Just mentioning these sacred numbers and people will know exactly who is being discussed.

But what about at UK? Here at the University of Kentucky they don't retire the numbers, but the jersey's of the greats who wear them. But what if the they did retire the numbers? Who would be the very best? Would #24 be Mashburn or Walker? Would #10 be Dampier, Minniefield, or Bogans?

Here are the voting results so far:

#00: Tony Delk Vote for #00

Comment by Blue Blood 00 on June 19, 2009 at 3:38pm: Tommy Kron would never be a bad choice, but were talking about Frank Ramsey! Ramsey is a ALL TIME GREAT!!

Comment by oldkentucky on June 12, 2009 at 11:49pm: Dwight Perry was really my first choice but just for pure skill, I had to go with Frank Ramsey.

Comment by Kentucky Sports Network on June 12, 2009 at 3:48pm: You are correct sir. No one has, nor will they ever wear #28 or #29 for UK.

Comment by Grammy Rosebud on June 12, 2009 at 3:10pm: Would have loved to have voted for our hometown Cat, Stan Key. Great guy who graduated from high school with my husband. He was also a co-worker of mine here at good old Murray State for many years before going back to work at UK. I know in my heart though that Frank Ramsey has to be the man. Go Cats!

Comment by The Krystal Ball on June 12, 2009 at 2:51pm: Tommy Kron would be a good choice, but it has to be Frank Ramsey. So I guess no one ever wore numbers 28 or 29???

Comment by Stephen on June 12, 2009 at 9:38am: It was hard to not vote for the myth, the man, the leged that is Irv Thomas. However, I felt Frank Ramsay deserved the nod (LOL)
