Default Bowman’s Best U drops today

Looks like a fun rip but of course will probably be $300+ a box.

I'm surprised Bueckers has autos in this being a Panini Exclusive. Guess they had leftover stickers?

I'm passing this year. I actually bought a decent amount of Bowman U Best last year (a case of BD and several hobby boxes). I have a case of UConn NIL hobbies coming end of the month that's taken most of my college bball budget for this year. Lol

Guess they saved some for this year's Bowman Best. Makes sense they didn't use them up on BUC since she had her BUC 1st cards last year, and there are no Bowman 1sts in Best.

That Sarah Strong/Paige B dual auto though.....*drool*

I pulled the trigger. With Chrome sitting at over $200 and only 2 autos, plus the addition of Paige to this product I think it will be $300+ when it comes out. Last years is really high but they made much less of it than this years. This years looks to be around 2000 Hobby cases and 1000 delight cases though, so relatively low.

If you pull the JuJu Watkins/Paige/Hannah Hidalgo or Paige/Sarah Strong Dual I am a buyer

Not many people realized this - but hobby also all had 2 Clark autos from what I saw. I opened 3 hobby cases and all 3 had 2 Clark autos. But Clark was much tougher to hit in delight.

Will be interesting to see if hobby is loaded again this year.

As an Illini fan, I was holding out hope for Will Riley and Kasparas to make their way into the checklist. No such luck, it appears

I would have taken a Tomi Ivisic, but hopefully just means he'll get a proper first next year. I-L-L!

I ripped one box and got a Sarah Strong auto #/75. Also got a gold dual patch auto of Kam Jones, other two autos were meh. #ed cards of Joyce Edwards, Kon Kneuppel, and two others. Also got shimmer refractors of Cooper Flagg & Dylan Harper, along with other assorted refractors/inserts. Not too bad for one box, as I know it could be much worse!
