Description
[This book] not only covers historical issues and precedents in the crazy world of commercialized college sports in America, but it also includes a focus on the current and relevant issues of intercollegiate athletics literally as they are happening. . . . This book eloquently covers the issues outside the fields and courts that will shape intercollegiate athletics far into the future and shows how different it may one day look." - B. David Ridpath, author of Tainted Glory: Marshall University, the NCAA, and One Man's Fight for Justice
