It almost feels weird these days to see 2024 product released before the end of 2024.

Man, as I look over it - the sapphire checklist was so odd. And then some players had autos in sapphire, but no auto in BUC proper. Hard to follow what the plan was there.

I’m with you - all this time I had no idea 4 cards were missing from the checklist. Nice!

I know Jack Sawyer from OSU was in Sapphire base but not BUC. Cade Stover had Sapphire autos but no auto in BUC

Another rock solid asymmetrical design. Can't wait to dig into my boxes! That reminds me, I need to make sure I've got an empty binder and enough 9-card pages.

Probably some 17 year old stock boy ignored all the signs saying "Do not put on shelves until November 27".

Mannn I still strongly believe the entire reason for Sapphire being brought in was to right the wrong of the Judkins/Mingo “slip” 🤣

I decided to write a quick player guide for BUC too. If anyone has any notes I'd like to hear 'em.

Part of me wants to share this to the masses… the other wants to keep it as a “IYKYK” prospect honey hole…

(well done!)

Seeing that some of it is live gives me hope that it isn't going to be delayed at least!

Out of curiosity, I decided to see where the nearest Scheels is to me.

I discovered there is one within walking distance of where I am already planning to have dinner tonight with my girlfriend. So that worked out well!!

$200 later, I'll come back tonight with a report on my hits (what few there are). I know it is a waste of money since I have a case coming, but it'll be a fun mini-break.

And the nearest to me is an 11-hour drive....or 2 hour plane ride.

don't think I'll make it
