Alumni approved. However paper composition doesnt match with photo print

Some of the pictures are almost over exposed and low quality. The picture and paper dont seem to mesh very well. It seems like my high school year books had a better feel and photo quality, but again it feels like the blend of paper isnt appropriate for the photo print Also there is a photo typo on the tech vs gonzaga page. A caption of the game reads "moretti seen directing the offense against Michigan wolverines...." When the picture is clearly him playing the game against gonzaga. 5 stars because I'm an alumni, but 3 stars because the pictures are not high quality which I blame on the paper composition when printed

Even better than expected

This was far classier than I expected. The photos were beautiful and the stories were heartwarming. It takes you into the lives of ever player. My dad has been cheering on the Red Raiders since he was in diapers and this historic season was emotional for him. I am so proud to share the legacy with my dad.

Fantastic story of the Red Raiders and their journey to the Final Four.

Wonderful book documenting the Raiders journey. A great ‘coffee table’ book. I bought this for my husband and he loves it. The pages are heavy paper, photos crisp and clear. A pleasure to read and own!

Fearless champions!

Love this book, tradition and new hope for a fearless team and coach. Thank you for sharing the story of this great leader. Lynne Stewart
