I hope APP steps up on our program. its great to watch a game when you have a good program to read. I really like when they have big visitor section so I can understand who to watch on the other team.

Congrat's - maybe I'll get the chance to see one live.

Cost: $2.00
Dept: YSU Sports Information Dept. makes it, in association with Pegasus Printing in Youngstown... The staff really is not that big on it then, because the sports info dept. only has total of 5 people in it. The printing company pretty much just prints it.

I guess the game has to be really boring to go through 172 pages of info ;)

No but seriously, congrats on the award, it seems like a lot of people put a lot of time into that program and it is being recognized.

Wow, buying a program, can't remember the last time I did that. I just print thw two-deeps off the free online gamenotes and go from there. If you're waiting for the gameday program to tell you what to watch then I have to ask where you've been the whole week leading up to the game. Not knocking YSU's program, I've gotten them before and they are good. Just not my cup of tea. xcoffeex

I keep telling myself to do that, but I'm a Dad and I've gotta have a program from every game.:D It's one of those costs of sending the kid to college that aren't published in the school's PR material.xlolx

Wasn't sure GoGuins. I usually get my copy up in the loges where they are just sitting all around the place. Still very very affordable for such a quality product.

Loges are cool, my company had one up until this past year
