A view of college athletics.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Great look into the world of college athletics that you don't see on ESPN. Gives the readers a real look at what goes on; what's really involved in the world of college sports and the "student athlete". Great reading. You think that college athletics have become more show than competition? Well, read this book and come away with what really goes on. Excellent read.
