Greatest Book of College Basketball: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Greatest Book of College Basketball" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Five reasons why you must own The Greatest Book of College Basketball: 1. Since the first peach basket there have been, what, 17 billion college games? And just a few less than that every week on ESPN. For the game thats well into its second century how best to present the anecdotes, information, statistics? Scholarly textbook version? Been done. Record book? Shelves are full of them. Lists. Its the way fans talk. Moments after Dukes Christian Laettner flung in that remarkable shot against Kentucky in 1992, list makers shifted into overdrive. Greatest shot. Greatest game. Most thrilling ending. Where did it rank? Youll get it here, and more than 100 other lists that tell the story. 2. Youll learn something. Youll know the team that won the NCAA championship without a home court, discover how three players changed the rules, learn why some of the greatest college players of all-time passed up the Olympics, and find out precisely when James Naismith, who invented the American game, became an American. 3. Its cheap at $10.95, which makes it nearly impossible not to buy two. One for the home and one for the office. 4. Youll never need another book about college basketball. When a friend tells you about his terrific book, you can give him the stop sign, cock your head and counter, No, I have The Greatest Book of College Basketball. 5. Its the only way to find out which school pulled off the greatest recruiting coup, which school suffered the most damage from a points-shaving scandal, and what is college basketballs greatest book. The Greatest Book of College Basketball touches every corner of the game. The heroes and goats; best and worst. Recruiting busts, ugliest coaching departures, one-year wonders, tragedies, comebacks, greatest influences and much more.
