There's about 6 pages of insightful reporting, the rest is advertising and a bunch of garbage you could find online for free on ESPN or CBSsports. Quote Link to comment

I kinda expected the advertising. The section on the Devaney Era was pretty cool, but that was kinda one of reasons I bought it. Its got some predicitons for the upcoming season. Other than that nothing more than we already knew. Im still trying to finish reading Phil Steele's magazine, its got alot of pages and small print. Other than the advertisments selling themselves as the most accurate magazine in the world, its a pretty good read. Quote Link to comment

JTrain Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 Just picked up the Yahoo! Sports preseason magazine. The regional cover (midwest) has Crick with Pryor and John Clay (see above). Lots of love for Crick this year... so far he's on five of five regional covers. Quote Link to comment
husker_99 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Athlon Sports just makes stuff up. I think it's a joke magazine that somehow gets taken seriously. Quote Link to comment
