Only three Creighton Bluejays men’s basketball players have their numbers retired. Meet Paul Silas, one of those men and one of the best rebounders in basketball history.
The best Bluejay to wear No. 34 may have been overshadowed by others during his time on the Hilltop, but his numbers are impressive.
The number 33 was retired in honor of Bob Portman years ago, and today our series “What’s in a Number?” takes a look at his extraordinary career.
WBR’s ongoing series, “What’s in a Number?” takes us above the rim today, as we look at the greatest #32 in Jays history, Rodzilla. Yup, we’re talking about Rodney Buford.
Just seven players have worn the number for the Jays, and only the most hardcore fans likely have any recollection of most of them. Troy Bell, defensive specialist on the 1988-89 team, is the best of them.
