Title: Looking for a good home
Post by: IndyValpo on September 30, 2016, 07:20:33 AM
Back before the internet, schools used to print media guides. Actually maybe they still do.

Regardless, I have Valpo Basketball Media Guides from 1981-82 to 2000-01 with the exception of one year (not sure which). They have fallen victim to a downsizing and I am looking for someone who is interested in keeping them.

I know many on here complain about how we did not take advantage of our NCAA run, but after looking through these last night....we have really come a long way from 1981.

PM if interested

Regarding the media guides, I'd encourage you to check with the archives at the University library to see if they have a copy of all of these guides.  If not, I'm sure they'd love to have them.  The contact is Judy Miller and her email address should be easy to find on the University web site.  I feel your pain, though.

Let's be honest here. Your wife is making you get rid of them. :)

I'm happy to take them. Doing some research. I'm interested in any and all Valpo basketball historical stuff.

It wasn't a marriage, but my relationship ship sailed in January!

Indy, I am a big fan of my print media but I believe, and true of pro teams as well, due to the Internet and electronic age, many teams do not bother anymore. If I had them they'd be yours but I think schools look at the cost and feel it is too great.

I agree with you
