NOTES:
Frank’s an old head from the AAF days. Too bad I didn’t go to the Michigan game in 2025. I would’ve worn my Tarpley jersey to jog his memory.
I made a deal with an eBay seller to pick up this black plate at a reduced price. It had been sitting there for 6-8 months and no one was biting.
During the 2026 season Frank came forward to reveal that he and other members of the league from previous years had been blackballed from the league- and that’s why they weren’t playing in 2026.
TRADE DETAILS:
Upper Deck eCard for Frank Ginda’s autographed UFL card.
Matt Coburn initially signed with Louisville in 2015, but close to signing day, was told the school ‘had no room for him’,
Signed with Wake Forest the following year ran for 2,528 yards, finishing 6th in school history.
Undrafted in 2019, signed with the Los Angeles Rams but didn’t make the squad.
Joined the XFL in 2020 seeing little action with the New York Guardians in two contests before the league folded due to COVID.
Played in The Spring League that year for the TSL Blues.
Signed with the Toronto Argonauts in 2021 but didn’t make the squad.
Played for the USFL Philadelphia Stars in 2022.
Ran 102 times for 457 yards and 8 TDs, and caught 18 passes for 150 yards and a TD for the Stars in 4 starts (10 games).
After short stints with the Jaguars and again with the Stars in ’23, was selected by the Michigan Panthers during the UFL dispersal draft.
Led the Panthers with 90 carries for 401 yards and 4 TDs in 8 games.
Injuries derailed most of his 2025 campaign, as he saw action in only 3 games, rushing 22 times for 101 yards and a 23 yard TD.
ACCOLADES:
USFL Sportsman of the Year 2022
NOTES:
The photo on this UFL 2025 card is fantastic. I really like the clear expression on his face along with the juxtaposition of his figure against the yellow background.
TRADE DETAILS:
I traded away a triple signature UFL card for EJ PERRY, HAKEEM BUTLER, CODY LATTIMER, DONALD PAYNE, and MATT COBURN II. (Later in the month I’d pull that same triple signature card again anyway.)
I mean, it’s a bit smeared which is fine with me. Of all the cards I sent him last time, this was the one he didn’t sign. It was the last one I needed autographed, so I didn’t want to trouble him again and just picked this one up off of eBay for a cheap price.
Celebrating the game, the players, the cards, and the autographs for over 25 years.
