Summary
ESPN’s list of greatest college football players by jersey number sparked outrage among Michigan fans after misidentifying Anthony Carter — a Wolverines legend who wore No. 1 from 1979 to 1982 — as an Ohio State Buckeye. Carter, a two-time All-American and Heisman runner-up, racked up 141 catches for 2,600+ yards and 31 touchdowns, setting a standard that still echoes today. The glaring error, uncorrected and especially painful given the rivalry, highlights how even major networks can miss the mark — and why Carter’s legacy deserves better than a misstep in the spotlight.
