Omschrijving
This timely book highlights the impact that sports have on institutions of higher education and guides college leaders and educators in informed discussion of policy and practice.
"This is a scholarly compendium of scandals that have raised our collective ire over the past 30 years. Authors demonstrate the causes and effects of commercialization on unethical and sometimes unlawful conduct in intercollegiate sports."
— Kevin Blackistone, Opinionist at ESPN and The Washington Post, and Professor of Journalism, University of Maryland
"Harper and Donnor explore the underbelly of major college athletics and how skyrocketing revenues, salaries, and expectations have led many to lose their moral compass. College sports is more than March Madness and Saturday pageantry; fans owe it to themselves to learn the full story from this excellent book."
— Adam Rittenberg, National College Football Reporter, ESPN
"It is all fun and games until teams get penalized for violating NCAA policies. The authors analyze college sports scandals with surgical precision in this fascinating book."
