Rhody the Ram Number

[OhioRam32]

This is probably a ridiculous question and I full expect to get made fun of...however, a family discussion has led me to ask this question: Is there any significance to Rhody's number being 42? I didn't want to ask but got pressured into doing so, figured someone might know!

I believe it’s number 44. Their elite running backs of the 50s and 60s wore it.

I don’t think it’s a ridiculous question. I’ve been wondering myself. I remember trying to get information about it on line. There was quite a bit regarding the mascot origin but nothing regarding number 42, so it’s still a mystery to me.

I think it started with Ernie Davis. You’re right; it’s 44. My daughter graduated nearly 20 years ago so my memory is getting fuzzy.

[McRam]

Whatever number The Ram was in the detubing of the St. Joseph hawk is the official number!

[Blue Man]

From experience it's whatever jersey they can find that fits. At least that's how it was back in the day. Would assume not too much changed!

the # should be 92

as in 1892

I thought I saw rhody wearing #25 last night?

Represent Will Daniels maybe????

I don't think it's really a big deal for it to match up that closely, but 23 would be far more appropriate than 92 if you want to make a big deal out of the mascot number. We adopted the ram mascot in 1923
