About SEC Basketball History & Tradition
"SEC Basketball History & Tradition" is the third title of a trilogy of books by writer Chris Warner that celebrates the unique histories and colorful traditions of each Southeastern Conference school. The foreword of the book is written by former LSU player Ricky Blanton, the afterword is with former LSU head basketball coach Dale Brown, and the middle of the book contains a "Tribute to Pete Maravich," the greatest scorer in the history of the college game. "This book is for anyone who loves basketball," Warner said. "It is a comprehensive look at the sport in the Southeastern Conference--its humble beginnings on the campuses prior to the turn of the century, and the many changes that have transpired and altered the game over the course of the last thirty years." The 256-page book contains a history of basketball in America, including chapters on each of the SEC schools highlighting their unique hardwood history and traditions; their first black players; their arenas; their greatest players and coaches; their mascots, alma maters and more! The afterword with Dale Brown profiles the former coach's controversial beliefs regarding the NCAA and what's wrong with college athletics today. Brown elaborates in great detail the monumental hypocrisies perpetuated by the NCAA against student athletes and he offers candid advice and recommendations for cleaning up and purifying the seemingly omnipotent governing body of American college athletics. If you consider yourself a serious college basketball fan, this book is for you!
