One might even call this book a crib sheet for pre-game and half time pep talks, but Feinstein also does his usual excellent job of "getting to know" the players, coaches and personalities. You'll get to know them too in this inside the lockerroom, season-long report.Feinstein's style is very easy to read and this book would be interesting to people from a sociological perspective in addition to those who are basketball junkies like myself. Does the NCAA and its member institutions exploit athletes? Where did the fun go from the game--playing is a privilege and the competition in an of itself, along with a scholarship should be enough. Feinstein tackles these topics again in his more recent book The Last Amateurs.This is a very worthwhile read and more evenhanded and "fair" to the participants than A Season on the Brink. In fact Dean Smith would not let the author have the same access as every other coach b/c Feinstein is a Duke alum. And that is precisely why the Duke-UNC is one of the top 3 college sports rivalries.
I have read several books written by coach K and as I am a Duke fan and none of these books have come close to John Finesteins "A March to Madness". If you are a fan of any team in the Atlantic Coast Conference that was actively a member of the conference of from the late 70's thru the late 90's, this is the book for you. Finestein spends time with the all the coaches and teams in the Atlantic Coast Conference and really gives a birds eye view for all the teams, coaches, and players. There is something for every ACC fan in "A March to Madness." It is really funny and interesting and it takes me back to a great era in ACC basketball. Best ACC basketball book I have read to date.
Enjoyed it a lot, like his writing.
Enjoyed this book very much even though its probably 20 years old. Gives good insight into the ACC. Feinstein is a great author.
excellent
I'm not a college hoops fan, but having come from the University of Connecticut (back when winning the NIT was a big deal for us), I figured I should try to read something about the sport that has come to define my alma mater.I chose well. No, UConn is not a part of the Atlantic Coast Conference, the subject of this season-long profile by John Feinstein. But Feinstein gives a solid appreciation for what college basketball is all about through the experiences of the coaches, players, refs, execs, and fans active in the ACC, which Feinstein claims is perhaps the most competitive b-ball conference in Division 1, year in and out. "Let down just the slightest bit and you become instant roadkill," he writes.Feinstein gives you a sense of the different coaching styles at play here, from Dean Smith's traditional approach at North Carolina to Rick Barnes' cut-up quirkiness at Clemson to Dave Odom's huggy-bear avuncularity at Wake Forest. He relates tales about the history and folklore of the conference that make one feel like an instant Dick Vitale just from reading them, even if the terms "traveling" and "charging" make you flash on American Express. Most importantly, he writes a book that really opens up the world of college basketball to the more casual fan, or even curious non-fan.That's what I liked the book. I read it, relished it, and enjoyed it with practically no knowledge of the sport going in. The way Feinstein writes about how different refs call different fouls, for example, was both illuminating and entertaining reading.Feinstein also writes candidly about contracts, recruiting, marriages (failed and successful), burnout, death, and all the other factors that affect college coaches. Players are less the focus, and I get the feeling that Feinstein speaks from personal experience late in the book when he speculates about how an inability to relate to his young players may have moved Dean Smith to retire at 66. The absence of a players' perspective is unfortunate, but it kind of follows with the focus of the book being on the nine coaches, seven of whom gave Feinstein total access.Feinstein obviously worked hard, and at times his narrative seems to be everywhere at once. Really great work on game descriptions, too, the way he uses them judiciously to punch up the storyline without letting them overtake the rest of the book.Finally, this is a must-read for fans of Duke and their coach, Mike Krzyzewski. Krzyzewski comes off the best in this book, and while some charge Duke grad Feinstein with bias, the truth is Krzyzewski has the most to offer, both as a man and as a coach. The story of his "drawing the line" before a big game with North Carolina is worth the price of the book by itself. Between him and Dean Smith, I'm surprised Feinstein had time at all for poor Pat Kennedy of Florida State, but he works hard at balance.What most comes across in this book is the amazing drive of the people involved. "If you're good enough to reach a goal, then there's still someplace else to go," says Maryland coach Gary Williams. "You don't just stop. You keep trying to be better."There are minor holes in "A March To Madness," but what makes it great is the fact its author shares Williams' passion for excellence. There's no let up.
