Leinart Won’t Allow USC to Unretire No. 11 for Recruits
Former USC quarterback Matt Leinart says USC will not unretire his No. 11 jersey for a top recruit, calling the idea unacceptable and noting he wouldn’t wear it again for a random player who might transfer. He would only consider it for his son(s) at USC, and money isn’t the issue—the retired number should stay retired in the NIL era as college football becomes more professional.
