Review: Charles Thompson and his book of lies. No one brought him to the lifestyle he was involved in. Barry Switzer offered him a chance to play football and get and education for free and he blew that opportunity. I am sick of hearing how Barry ruined all these guys lives. No one hired Switzer to baby sit, but to win football games. But, as long as we criticize winners as college football coaches, what about Bowden. The guy basically has the same mentality and no one bashes him. Come on people, don't waste the time and money on this piece of garbage.

Review: Do you not think that it is time to let the past be the past. A decade later and we are still concerned about how wrong Charles Thompson was. Learn from this book learn from his mistakes. I have had the great fortune of getting to know him personally and he has a great story to tell. Let's just grow up.

Review: i think all should read this book b/c it is an eye opener for parents and teens making the transition to college sports or into adulthood. let me tell you, it's was not just o.u. in the 80's doing dirt I played in the sec and the football players at the university were disruptive and coach and his staff stayed busy tring to keeping these guys out of trouble with the school and the law. one of the o.u. boosters wrote barry switzer job was not to babby sitter, true, but it is was not his job to go drinking with an 18 year old kid as well!
