Nico Collins evidently switching to #1
Too bad we'll never get to see it.
Too controversial - thread bound to be locked.
I wonder if JT Floyd was angry when Ambry got the Uno on defense.
Great! Just when I was about to post "Rated G---Great Thread" or "Mom-approved".
Thread red-locked.
Lets see a guy in a Michigan jersey at least once before we give him the #1 lol
Nah man, his highlight tape is ?
/s
Ref: Xavier Worthy
Are you saying he may not be Worthy?
Great. Deserves it, and let's hope we see him sprinting into the end zone in it a dozen times.
ONLY a dozen times???
He looks the part. I don’t see why not
Let's take it one step at a time and wait a year or two to see if Xavier is worthy of the number 1 jersey.
Let's wait a year or two to see if it's Xavier or Zavier
I support this move.
You can't just take Kekoa Crawford's number like that.

The only good reason for no CFB this fall: No Braylon Edwards on 97.1.
I'm sure he'll still be plenty active on twitter unfortunately...
1. He's good.
2. He came back.
3. He will have fantastic numbers this season on a per/game basis. (Yes, I'm an optimist with regards to the season.)
For those reasons, I agree he should get #1. And even if there is no season, he deserves it on paper only for reasons 1 and 2 above.
Nico has earned the Jersey.
Agreed - our best receiver last year, and he chose to come back for his senior year. The program, school and fans should celebrate and reward such moves.
I love the idea of awarding a player the jersey if they have made multi-year impacts. Nico deserves it. Maybe by his sophmore year, Xavier will earn it, or maybe Giles Jackson will have already earned it. Give the players just another thing to motivate them and compete for.
Giles is gonna be a star player here...he could get the 1 jersey...but Worthy sure reminds me of AC. Maybe it's the socks.
Giles supposedly switched to 0. I do feel like this season's WR core, while maybe not as talented, have more chemistry. We really have a passing threat for each level of the field, Nico for the deep ball, floaters, and redzone, Bell for the intermediary routes, YAC monster, crossing routes and Jackson in the slot for the speed in space and stretching the field. Throw in the occasional burner (Henning, Sainristl, Wilson) for four wide sets and there is going to be a lot of versatility on the field. Add to that Chris Evans on third downs. Maybe Charbonnet will also improve his receiving game.
And the skinny legs.
I sure hope we get to see him wearing it and catching TDs!
And he might never get a chance to shine in it....sigh if there is no football this fall its gonna be depressing as hell. At the same time we need this pandemic to end
Given that this coming season is about to disappear, isn’t there a chance that players like him will be allowed a way to skip 2021 and go pro? Maybe a supplemental draft? Seems unfair that his decision to stay will now cost him two years in the pros. Of course that assumes the nfl will play this year. Which it may well not.
Nico Collins will be a great #1, hope he gets the chance to play in it.
He has earned it as much as anyone lately. Hope he has a chance to live up to it.
My guess is we will never see Nico take another snap as a Wolverine.
For coming back you give Nico whatever the hell he wants. Without Nico we're handing off 2/3rds of the time and mixing it in with Ronnie Bell and a potpourri of TE's of 4 yard slants.The preview of last year's QB R/P option with DM and no downfield threat...well we saw how that's probably going to turn out.
Agreed with the above opinion(s) though that we're never going to see it.
He deserves it! Now just throw him the ball!!!
