Item description from seller

The Cost of Winning offers a firsthand account, from an award-winning senior-level athletic administrator, of how college athletics has morphed into quasi-professional athletic leagues while exploiting the athletes, higher education, and taxpayers. It is an unapologetic depiction of the winners and losers of the games behind the games.
