Kurt Edward Kemper tells the dramatic story of the clashes that shook college basketball at mid-century-and how the repercussions continue to influence college sports to the present day. Taking readers inside the competing factions, he details why historically black colleges and regional schools came to embrace commercialization. As he shows, the NCAA's strategy of co-opting its opponents gave each group just enough just enough to play along-while the victory of the big-time athletics model handed the organization the power to seize control of college sports.
