The Men of March: A Season Inside the Lives of College Basketball Coaches is a one-of-a-kind look at what it means and what it takes to be a head coach in the college arena of the new millennium.
Granted extensive access to the locker rooms, practices, offices, sidelines, and homes of four of the nations leading coaches and their programs, the author lays bare the forces that make coaches tick. From upset losses and recruiting wars to the mounting frenzy of March Madness and the fierce rivalries played out through long winters under the brightest, hottest spotlight in college sports, readers gain a genuine respect for men who choose and excel at this roller coaster ride profession.
With candid comments from over fifty college coaches, in addition to perspectives from many others, The Men of March provides an in-depth look at some of the significant issues facing coaches in the game today.
Among the many considerations of the college basketball pressure cooker are recruiting, graduation rates, hirings and firings, media relations, and the influence of volatile social issues such as race and religion on the game’s participants and leaders.
