Had to sell off all my treasured UK collection a few years ago and now rebuilding it. I look for older signed stuff (pre 1997) but open to anything unique. My last batch had a piece of the 96 NCAA Championship floor, 58/66/78/96/12 team balls, PSA certified Rupp signature to name a few of the things I wish I had kept. Just picked up a nice "The Huddle" print from a fellow forum member (thanks Jim!) so if you have an item to sell email me at matthewmartin@juno.com with a pic and price.

Thanks in advance guys and gals for any help!

I have a collector basketball commemorating the 2012 Championship with all the games played along with the opponents and scores. It is also signed by Calipari with a picture of him signing. I have a case for it as well

How much for the Mercer jersey?
 
I do have one thing I’d part with, an AD (college signature when he spelled the entire same rare) inscribed 2012 champs wingspan poster. But I’d want a good bit for it. They’re harder to find and not cheap. I usually don’t sell anything but I might make a move since I have 2 more.
 
I really don't know... not to be a tease, I still have to get it back and hope she hasn't ruined...

LOL. So you offered something for sale, then do not even know what you want for it, or if you will even have it ? Should have stated "IF my ex gives it back to me AND she hasn't destroyed it."

How did you make him sign it? I get a Women was involved, right?

It was when he first started at UofL, that summer. We have a mutual friend and co-worker and he did it as a favor. No way in hell he signs that after his first year at UofL.

Pitino signed everything I sent him since being at Louisville. Well over 10 pieces.

Here’s the trick and it is was the truth.

Through the mail, item, and letter telling him he’s your favorite and you’ll never forget his teams at UK. I’d end it with telling him he is the best coach in NCAA and Louisville is lucky to have him.

Followed by a bathroom break.

Then send it through the mail.

He returned every single thing.

Speaking of UK Hockey does anyone know how to email coach Pregnon? UK hockey coach. Dude took a team with 3 wins and won 20 last year. He’s probably better than Cal.

I need his contact info.

For example. This was through the mail. Donovan doesn’t usually sign. But they love sht like this. Signatures didn’t turn out great but through the mail it is what it is, I can fix his smudge. Tubby will be easy. Then frame. F it.

I have some Adolph Rupp posters not sure if it is of the championship years or not but I have three of them which I guess like the schedule posters they print out now. These are old
