I'm not sure if this thread is for everyone to post their recent pick-ups but I wanted to share this University of Houston 1996 C-USA Conference Championship Ring.

1996 was the inaugural season for UH in C-USA following the breakup of the Southwest Conference and UH's first winning season in six years.

This is a player's ring but upon doing research on this ring I discovered that Olympian Carl Lewis personally bought rings for all the support staff who didn't qualify to receive a "free" ring. The support staff rings are identical to the player's rings.

On a personal note I'd just like to publicly thank Mike for his advice and counsel while I was negotiating the purchase of this ring.
