I had the same question

Probably not happening this year. See this post for a theory as to why: http://the-boneyard.com/threads/whats-up-with-si.58939/#post-936769

SI is too busy with yet another exclusive interview with Kentucky coach John Calipari.
He's inescapable now, can you imagine if they'd won the thing?

 

[GemParty]

No I can't imagine. He's on a book tour. Hosted the last hour of Mike & Mike. Couldn't even pronounce Bazz's last name correct. That's ok, Bazz took a ring from him.

As it was said in another thread, without UConn, UK has 3 of the last 4 championships. You think the c-ck gobbling is bad now....He would be crowned the next Coach K. Talking heads would be calling for him to coach the Olympics.

Sorry for the late response. Just got home from work. That is really too bad. I actually re-read(and sometimes just thumb through the pictures) periodically during any given year/season. Nothing better to stoke the old memory bank. In fact, at important times like this NC, I really prefer to have something in my hands to read rather than scrolling through internet articles and pictures. It is a totally different(and better imo) "feel" that goes along with it. Times like this that I wish I had serious money. I would pay out of pocket for the issue and distribute to as many Husky fans as would like to have one.

GO HUSKIES!!!
2014 (MEN'S AND WOMEN'S)
NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!!!
"DOUBLE TROUBLE!!!"

I've been searching to see if SI was going to come out with their usual NC promotion, especially since both the men's and women's team had both won, but so far nothing. Like many fans, I not only sign-up for the subscript to get the hard cover copy and the mini-ball, but I also get the softcover ones and frame it along with a 2 or 3 others I've collected for that season. It will be very disappointing if they don't come out with either, which at this late stage seems to be the case.

I would think they'd make some good money on them, but I'm assuming they just can't sell enough to offset the production costs.

I'm pretty sure in years past that they don't do this in till the end of april. Usually the Commemorative Edition comes out at the end of April.
