Summary: nothing like College Basketball
Review: so many incredible Players have come through the College ranks.somehow saying that seems like another time period because more&more Kids are going straight too the Pros.but this Book reflects when alot of Guys made a name for themselves in the COllege ranks&leaped off of that.this Book has great reflections.for the Basketball fan especially the College Fan this is a must have.

Summary: A Great Conversation Book
Review: This book provides a great, short history of college basketball players that forces you down memory lane if you are a college basketball fan. Many contemporary writers struggle with rating players from previous generations. But while there was some weighting to players of the last 20 years, Mike did a good job of including many very old players, some of whom I was not familiar with.This is a great coffee table book positioned where you view games on TV. You'll be surprised how many people will pick up the book and then start debating the rankings. It's a great book to start conversations. DISCLOSURE: Mike is a friend of mine who I met when he lived in Memphis in the mid 90s. I have followed his career to The Sporting News and enjoy his articles as well as friendly banter on his opinions of college basketball. Mike is a respected sports journalist who is just now beginning to get the recognition he deserves.
