September issue in full swing

We are gearing up for a good one here at Saluki Illustrated. We've got a number of stories you won't want to miss, including an exciting feature on SIU's Brandin Jordan and the Saluki linebacker corps. We've also got tons more fun stuff, like the little known secret that legendary Notre Dame coach Frank Leahy was a closet Saluki fan! Stay tuned...more on the way!

And the winner is...

Looks like most people like this one the best so far, so I dolled one up with some award decals. Obviously this picture was taken after about four minutes of play in the season opener ;)

This does foretell of an upcoming feature on Brandin Jordan and the Saluki linebacker corps in the September SI. Trust me when I tell you that you WILL NOT want to miss it!

One more...

Inspired by bigjsaluki, this is my new favorite!

SI unveils new helmets!

First off, these are not official. Although Mario Moccia mentioned in a recent "Ask the AD" that the helmet design was being discussed, it is not being changed this season. No one asked for these...they are just for fun. See what you think and let us know which one you like the best or better yet, leave a comment below!

1. The Salukis wordmark logo

2. The SIU logo

3. Talk to the Paw...

We did it!

No, that picture is not of our actual office, but it might as well be. We're still refining our processes here at Saluki Illustrated, and in what I am sure will take us an hour or two in subsequent months took Christi and I about four hours to do today. What is that, you ask? We mailed out your magazines! And we mailed them out in nice shiny protective bags that will keep them clean and tidy. For those of you who started your subscriptions last month, we even bagged up LAST month's issue and sent you a new one of those, too. How's THAT for customer service? Just our little way of showing you that we care. Now get out there and tell everyone you know to subscribe to Saluki Illustrated because it is the greatest thing since baggy maroon shorts and dreadlocks!

Super cool Mac video

What a tease...

Hey Gang!

Belated Saluki News

Hey all. This was a tough one to write. One of my very own athletic training students, Crystal Fuehne of New Baden, is the subject of this month's Saluki News. Be sure to sign up for the free newsletter here to read the whole story. While she has come a long way since her fateful crash May 24th, she still has a long road to recovery ahead. Remember Crystal and her family in your prayers!
