JavaMan, thanks for letting everyone know. I just ordered my copy. Even with $4.95 for shipping and handling, it's still a bargain.

I just got my copy and it is a brilliant testimony to the legendary (someday I expect to use the adjective "immortal." like Lombardi) coaching of Geno and Chris, not to mention the steady parade of great players.

Special praise to the photographers, the writers (John A. and Jeff J.) and the Hartford Courant editorial staff. BRAVO!

My lone criticism: Not available in hard cover (like the ones I have from Sports Illustrated, years ago).

One suggestion: It would have been easy to get some firm like Avon or Olay as a sponsor, in exchange for a little plug for their anti-perspirant underarm deodorant products. Look at the photos.:oops: (Sorry, I couldn't resist.)

My copy came in this morning, Tuesday, and boy was it fun to relive all the people, that have made this program such a success!

My copy arrived today. Very nicely composed and printed. Great pictures. Only glitch that
I've noticed so far is one caption where what looks like Willnett Crockett is identified as
Barb Turner.

Bonus feature (for me): I'm in one of the pictures! (applauding as Geno comes down with
the trophy).

Copies are in stock & available at the UCONN CO-OP. If you happen to be on campus this weekend for graduation, pick one up!

Arrived a couple of days ago, just in time for a Mother's Day goodie.

I got the great soft-cover edition with Rebecca on the cover. More recently I spotted another edition (Hartford Courant site), priced at about $35, with Kaleena on the cover.

My guess is that the more expensive version has the same copy as the soft cover/Rebecca edition, just dressed up more elegantly in a more durable hard cover.

Can anyone verify or refute my intuitive expectation?

I, somehow, missed the pre-order price but given all the glowing descriptions I just ordered my copy.

It is well worth the money, even the extra cost. You will enjoy it!

I just got mine. Well worth it. I think I'll get one for my brother who doesn't give a s*** about WBB. Maybe he will "Get It". Congrats to the Hartford Courent. If you love UCONN Women's BB and you have not got one yet get one.
