Nobody won more games as a college baseball coach, but despite a life spent in the game there's just one place to look if you want a certified autograph of Augie Garrido.

And that's in packs of 2007 Topps Allen & Ginter. 

The 79-year-old former coach of the Texas Longhorns and Cal State Fullerton Titans won the College World Series five times and a record 1,975 games in a career that spanned 48 seasons. He died on Thursday after suffering a stroke last week.

"This is a very, very sad day," said Texas AD Chris Del Conte. "We lost one of the greatest coaches of all time, a truly special Longhorn Legend and college athletics icon. There will never be another Augie Garrido. He was a once-in-a-lifetime personality whose impact on Texas Athletics, collegiate baseball and the student-athletes he coached extended far beyond the playing field. If you were fortunate enough to have spent time with Augie, or if you followed him in any way, he had a great effect on you with his brilliant combination of wisdom, wit and charm. He was just an incredible coach, molder of men and a great person."

Imagine a baseball card set that has spanned every year for the last decade or more with players coming and going but appearing on the same ongoing year-by-year checklist?

That's the idea that Topps has unleashed today as The Living Set arrives with three cards that are an artistic homage to 1953 Topps but with today's stars -- and they'll only make one appearance in the release over time unless they change teams.

Oh, and like Topps Now, there's an ordering window that will determine how many are made and they won't be available after that time.
