The Charlotte Hornets are retiring Dell Curry’s No. 30 jersey on March 19, sources tell ESPN. Curry, the 1994 Sixth Man of the Year, ranks second in points in franchise history and spent 10 of his 16 NBA seasons in Charlotte (1988-98). He currently serves as a team ambassador.
The committee watched Bama blow a 17-0 lead to a terrible Auburn team, winning by 7 with 280 total yards and moved them ahead of ND. Then watched them embarrass themselves with -3 yards rushing and a 21 point loss to Georgia and did not drop them. Tonight’s rout is the result.
