    THE Texas A&M Football Collection

    This is my only collection pursuit, Texas A&M Former Student Footballers.

    The collection is limited to one (1) rookie in pro uni and one (1) autograph card. I do allow the autograph to feature the player in Texas A&M uni, should they not have any pro uni auto's on the market.

    If they player went undrafted and unsigned, I only look to pick up their UD Star Rookie auto and if not produced in that set, then I'll settle for a Bowman and if nothing else, a Sage

    For the "rookie", I first seek out a card from the players rookie year and one that designates "rookie" or "RC" somewhere on the card. However, In some cases, I'll forego a rookie card and go with a nicer looking insert or parallel from any year. It depends on what's been produced and what I can find on the market.

    Even though I may have my one rookie and one auto of a certain player, I'm always looking for upgrades.

    Enough of that, LET THE COLLECTION BEGIN!

    Didn't know that Nwachukwu had any cards. Going to have to look into that. Noticed it was SSP, so guessing they don't show up much on ebay.
    I collect Andre Johnson, Redskins from the 70’s & 80’s, HOF’ers and Texas A&M Aggies
    (Manziel, Mike Evans, Jake Matthews, Ryan Swope, Sean Porter, Luke Joeckel, Damontre Moore, Ryan Tannehill, Cyrus Gray, Jeff Fuller, Martellus Bennett, Stephen McGee, Goodson, Jerrod Johnson, V. Miller, Acie Law, DeAndre Jordan, Antoine Wright, Justin Ruggiano, etc.).

      The is the first and only one I've ever seen and it was on the bay. Guy had it listed for $30BIN/OBO. Even though I wanted it, I couldn't stomach that price for a practice squad player.

      It is the 2nd most short printed card in the product... took me a couple weeks to get the guy to come down, but I got it for $15. It's a nice addition.

        That is a nice wright up on your collections. The cards are stunning. My favorite is the John David Crow, I purchsed "Legends of the Gridiron" in 2013. It's in a massive slabbed dual auto card holder from Becket. On one side there is the only player to ever receive a Heisman Trophy twice; "Archie Griffin". This is a mammoth of a card, I leave that card in the box I purchsed it in. The back of the card/slab has the auto
        Of your guy, John David Crow. Thank you for sharing your personal collection

          That's just the beginning of the collection, much more to come!

          I'd love to see this Griffin/Crow card you're talking about.
