Review:
(M)ajors zingers, like a ninja's throwing star, are quiet and deadly... When it comes to sports humor (Majors) is definitely Division I.
A sardonic, fun take on big-time college football, where booster money plays first-team offense.
A book that explores the gamut of experiences behind the scenes of collegiate football. Best of all, it's a great read where loyalty still means something in our 'money talks' world.--Jon Gruden, ESPN Monday Night Football Analyst
This rollicking, tongue-in-cheek sports novel from Majors makes for a breezy read worth a few chuckles while it gives a behind-the-scenes peek at the often greedy, arrogant titans who run college football. ...[A] funny, irreverent, and savvy sports novel.
A fast, fun book. Reads like a mixture of Dan Jenkins and Larry McMurtry.--Barry Switzer, former coach of the University of Oklahoma and the Dallas Cowboys
I can't remember the last time I laughed out loud this much reading a book.
It is a gem of a comedic novel, so laugh-out loud funny that readers might not even notice that if also captures the essence of the sport with humanity and grace.
Majors's wry and intelligent writing style pulls readers through the bizarre situations surrounding a major college football program... Strap yourself in--it's a wild ride.
(A)cidly hilarious... with both barrels, (Majors) lets loose on the venerable, holy SEC.
The comedy, which ranges smoothly from broad to subtle, is nonstop... witty and razor-sharp throughout.
