USC legend says he's given school officials strong answer on whether he'd unretire number for recruits

President Donald Trump hosts numerous sports figures at the White House on Friday for a college sports roundtable to discuss potential regulations about NIL and transferring.

No USC Trojans football player will be wearing No. 11 on the gridiron any time soon.

Of course, that seemed to be obvious when it was retired for Matt Leinart almost immediately after he graduated.

However, the USC legend revealed that he has been approached by USC officials "multiple times" about whether he would unretire the number "for some five-star prospect."

"And do you want to know what I told those guys straight up? I said, ‘Absolutely f---ing not,’" Leinart said on his "Throwbacks" podcast. "I am never going to unretire my jersey for some random dude who, by the way, now could wear No. 11 and transfer after a year."

There are rare exceptions, of course.

"The only person that will ever wear my USC No. 11 would be [my son] Cole, who’s not there right now. He’s at SMU. Or two of my boys if they end up going to USC and playing football. That is it," he said.
