Is Vince Young's autograph worth $59?

Vince Young signs autographs Sat 10-11:30am at Team Shop on west side of stadium. Tix on sale now at both stadium team shop locations.

The autographs are not free. According to Fans Authentic's Scott Gershenbaum, Young's signature with an inscription will run at $59 for the public.

Fan and have a nice item like a jersey or helmet to get signed then probably. If you were to get his autograph at an airport or hotel he has an ugly signature. I'm sure paying him the 60 bucks he will give you his nicer signature and also inscribe something. Their is a pretty big market for college autographs and he is one of the best college players ever.

I personally wouldn't pay 10 bucks for his autograph, because if I really wanted it I know how to get it for free. Some people don't know you can get these guys autographs for free so they don't have a problem spending the money.
ahhhh

pay that much for anybody's autograph, but Vince Young really was an awesome college football player.

Sure he didn't cut it in the NFL, but his college career was brilliant and he was absolutely enormous in bringing a national championship to a massive program that hadn't won a title in a very long time. He's a Texas hero and deservedly so.
Maybe, if he signed it as

best college QB I've seen

which might make him the best college player I've seen by default since QBs are so important.

Those 2 Rose Bowl wins he had were nothing short of epic. It wasn't just a one man show because those Longhorns defenses were great, especially the secondary. But he put that team on his back in those games in a way you rarely see happen in football.

If I were a Longhorns fan I'd definitely be a big fan of Vince Young. Would I pay $60 for an autograph? I don't know about that since I've never been some autograph seeker, but I don't think $60 sounds too crazy.

"Worlds #1 Draft Bust"


Then maybe

I have never liked Vince Young, but the guy is not the #1 draft bust. He had a record of 31-19 in the NFL. His career was short, but that record isn't a bust.
Maybe it was missing a decimal point...

$.59
While he didn't have a good NFL career  
Jimmy Googs : 4/18/2014 5:33 pm : link
Young sure seemed like he enjoyed playing the Giants.
Vince Young was disappointing ...

... but not a bust.

An all time bust would be someone like Ryan Leaf who everyone had as 1b to Peyton Manning's 1a (and in some cases reversed).

Jamarcus Russell is an all time bust as well, though IIRC a lot of teams had him rated a late 1st - early 2nd rounder at best and only Al Davis thought he was #1 overall worthy.

If it's on a hundred dollar bill.
