ok, then what's your explanation for:
  • B.J. Armstrong
  • Greg Stokes
Certainly, great players in their own right but also not Garza? I don't think Marble was complaining about Garza's merits. It's his place among all the players with retired numbers. MD you had the potential of a great post but the Marble dig was no class.

Neither BJ nor Greg should have retired jerseys is the correct answer. They weren't even All Americans I think.
