The dramatic story of the clashes that shook college basketball at mid-century—and how the repercussions continue to influence college sports to the present day. Readers learn an innovative history of an overlooked era, looking at how promises, power, and money laid the groundwork for an American sports institution.

”An impressive and important work, Before March Madness powerfully illustrates the internecine conflicts between rival collegiate organizations and how the NCAA was forced to confront its racist, duplicitous, and often indifferent behaviors to ultimately emerge triumphant in the late 1950s.”—Milton Katz, Kansas City Art Institute
