    Don't let Phil Steele's FCS Magazine go by the Wayside

    When I emailed Phil to find out when his FCS Preview would hit the news stands, he told me in late July or early August. I have gotten his magazine for the last two years and although he put his FCS preview in a separate section in last year's SEC/Big East/ACC Preview, he still had much more info than any other magazine.

    He told me that this is his first time experimenting with a magazine devoted entirely to the FCS and unless it is profitable it will be his last. He ended by saying at the moment he 's gotten very few orders. We've all complained about the lack of coverage for the FCS and begged for someone to step up. Phil listened and is giving us what we want. I encourage you to call his office today and order a copy. Don't wait for it to hit your bookstore as many only cater to the BCS crowd and you may be out of luck.

    Thanks Phil!

    I ordered one for my Dad and I...I hope the FCS mag. sticks. I hate the FCS coverage of "The Sporting News," etc., where it's one conference page written by one sportswriter of some newspaper in the conference's vincinity.

    Definitely ordering mine soon and we will be running a contest here at AGS where we will be giving some away in the next couple of weeks so stay tuned and buy one anyway because as you say we need to stop *****ing about converage and make this work for them.

    This is up to us so put your money into this thing and make them happy that they attempted this.

    I ordered mine very early and I've been anxiously awaiting it. Was initially told to expect it the end of June or early July. Looks like orders have been slow and it's been pushed off a month. Please don't let this inaugural issue be the last. Encourage all the fans you know to subscribe. The investment is rather small. I hope it's a great publication, but if not, it's not huge loss. Don't wait for someone else to critique it. Get your own and make your own call.

    OH!! Remember to post this topic to all FCS sites you visit!!

    I totally agree with you guys! I have a friend in that office I have known for years and I can't wait to see this. I hear The Sports Network is going to be hyping it and will provide content as well I'm told.
