Apparently, Pat White does not meet the criteria set fourth by the board or committee that designates the retirement of a jersey. The full article anouncing this is on ESPN.COM., entitled,"West Virginia's White not eligible for jersey retirement, and by Daily Mail's article by the same name" No. 5 should never be worn by a Mountaineer football player again. But even an unofficial recognition of a retired jeresy is not enough for me. I feel that anything short of honoring the greatest football player in Mountaineer football history, is a travesty of justice. I am seriously considering an petition to right this wrong.

Couldn't agree more. I'm sure there's arguments that it's appropriate to wait, but I think Pat's unbelievable character and performance as a Mountaineer overcome that.
