I'm a sucker for all-encompassing yearly college basketball rags

like Lindy, Athlon, sporting news, etc. I like the all-in-one reference especially during tourney season, quickly learning the team we are up against.

I think Lindy always comes out first so people itching to start reading up on the upcoming season will buy. But they risk missing out on significant things that happen closer to season start, like Donovan Dent going to LSU.

Plus, i like the organization of the info, easy on the eye, top 20 ranking, conferences, recruiting in the back, wish they had more women stuff.

I've never purchase blue ribbon coz it are more expensive and it seems chock-full of text, not easy on the eye.

I loved Sporting News' format but I don't think they do college hoops anymore.

P.S. bummer about Skyy :-(
