Description: This provocative and refreshing take on sports in American universities provides the context in which to understand--and improve upon--the current landscape of intercollegiate athletics.

Brief description: Eric A. Moyen is a professor of higher education leadership and the Assistant Vice President for Student Success at Mississippi State University. He is the author of Frank L. McVey and the University of Kentucky and the coauthor of Changing the Game: My Career in Collegiate Sports Marketing.

Review Quotes: [Moyen and Thelin] has combed through archival records, newspaper articles, and oral histories to create a compelling and comprehensive page-turner that covers 150 years of college sports history....It's the perfect fusion of "Back to School" and grandstand gravitas.
