    Why not put him in a home jersey... Lol. It's nice to see him on a cover of a magazine.

    Still don't understand why he's on a cover with Navy and Clemson players. :oops:
    Here's the Southeastern edition cover. The Louisville player should be in the East.

    I'm old enough to remember when there was one preseason college football mag. "Street and Smith." And I remember one line from its 1960 preview of the Gators, 1960 being Ray Graves' first year as head coach. "The Gators are going first class from here on in."

    I remember perusing at the magazine rack, but it wasn't for preseason mags.

    They kept them in back, last rack in the store. (Sounds like a good coming-of-age movie. "Last Rack in the Store.")

    Question for those living in Florida on here.
    Are you seeing the Southeast cover in stores and/or the East cover?

    I remember that place. Hadn't thought of it in years until you mentioned it. Mike's Bookstore is where dad and I usually went.

    I went to Mike's often. Couldn't remember the name of it.
