Find players you love that aren’t super pricey and you can get cards that you love without breaking the bank! Like this Crown Royale rookie purple auto. I was surprised that a playoff team didn’t add Dipo to their roster given his veteran leadership.

Might not be an “expensive” card or a valuable one. But this was my first ever 1/1 card that I owned. As an Indiana Hoosier Alum and watching Yogi play, he is one of the all-time great IU point guards. It got a PSA 10 which is a nice bonus, but really just wanted it slabbed for my personal PC!

Well, a sweet college friend sent these to be to commemorate the IU undefeated season and championship run. No, I’ll never open it or drink it. But I will use the glasses on occasion’

The rally towel is the collectable, but the memories of being in the second row to watch my team win their first national championship, an undefeated season, the Heisman winner and coach of the year was unparalleled. And to run the gauntlet and win on enemy turf made it even better. What a game! The biggest turnaround in sports history. I never would have thought it could happen in my lifetime! Hoo-hoo-hoo-Hoosiers!

Yesterday, Fernando’s younger brother, Alberto Mendoza interned into the Transporter Portal, and signed with Georgia Tech a few hours later. This has lead me to wonder if Fernando might be staying at Indiana for the 2026-2027 school year, and that’s why his younger brother left Indiana right after their win in the National Championship Game. Why would he leave one of the richest colleges in America, that just won the Natty to a team that had just now had some success, if his brother was leaving Indiana?

Of course, he might want to chase college football glory outside of Indiana, where his brother Fernando is now a legend. Which, I can’t blame him. He’s his own player, and not his brother. But, Tom Brady’s Raiders might just have to go after a QB in free agency, or draft Ty Simpson if Fernando stays at Indiana one last season. This is all speculation, so don’t freak out yet Raider fans! What do y’all think? Let me know in the comments.
