in any event, i prefer the names being on the jerseys. as it was stated, most people know the numbers of the first-stringers, but when the backups start to play it's not so easy to know who's on the field. besides notre dame, what other teams choose not to print their players' names on jerseys?

I know USC doesn't have names. I'm pretty sure Purdue doesn't. There's a few more, but I can't think of them right now.

I prefer the names also. There were only a handful of times I felt like I needed them for myself. However, there were many, many times I wished the names were there for my wife's sake.
