George Wilson’s is on the market.

Yea, it's been out there for a while. They haven't lowered the 7500 price. Not cheap.
Fun to see a piece of history such as this but I too wonder about the price.

If there is a buyer, one would hope it is eventually gifted to UC Athletics and becomes part of a larger historical collection displayed in Varsity Village celebrating the championship seasons and the great players such as George Wilson who put UC in elite company forever in the world of college basketball.
I mean if I bought it I’d wear it every game day on campus like I do my Rube #23 wristbands. Great conversation starters.
Wife says no
I always found this odd. Why buy someone else’s trophy?

Because some of us like sports memorabilia and think this would be a cool.
I thought about buying buying it and giving it to George so he could leave it to a family member. My wife vetoed that idea.
Doss, provide proof of purchase so we know you're not on welfare please.

I am still mulling it over. If it was the ring of The Muncie Mortar I would be real tempted. Bonham was my favorite player. His 2 pointers were mostly todays 3 pointers.
