NCR: Does anyone subscribe to the Sporting News

Looking for a back-issue, but not really sure which one. Can find nothing on-line.
Issue would be sometime after 2-16-11.
Contains an article about either JaJuan Johnson or Robbie Hummel (Purdue).

The reason I ask that my parents in Florida just informed me that they had received a phone call or email from friends that there was a picture of JaJuan Johnson and their grandson (my son) in the article.

Story behind the pictures
Long time Purdue fan and have been a season ticket holder for 20+ years. Last year my 7 year old (Jacob) befriended one of the cheerleaders. She always came by before the game and talked to him, made sure that he had team posters and a balls, tee shirts and such that they would throw out during the game. She graduated last year but continued to attend all the games as she is Ryne Smith's girlfriend and also happened to sit 2 rows in front of this year.
She told Jacob early in the season that if there was a game he would like to stay after, she would take him around and introduce him to all the player. That is all he could talk about until we found a game that wouldn't conflict with turning into a late night and school. He bought a poster so everyone could sign and we decided on the WI game.
Boy, let me tell you, he received the VIP/Rock Star treatment!!!! Introduced to all the players and got each one to sign his poster. Lifetime memory......

Now back to my request. If anyone has back issues, looking for information on what's on the cover and publication date so I know what I'm looking for.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
