I got this book from Netgalley, so I can read and review it before it’s published. I saw this book a few months ago on a list that somebody compiled about the best upcoming sports books and when I saw it, I immediately was intrigued and threw it in my Amazon Wishlist. I use that Wishlist to keep track of books I want to read. Right now, I have 23 books on it.
I had no clue that those hall of fame coaches, started there coaching careers in Boston. Jim Calhoun at Northeastern, Rick Pitino at Boston College, and Gary Williams at Boston University. All of them were extremely successful in Boston, but they are probably more known for their coaching careers at Uconn, Kentucky, and Maryland.
Not only does this book dive into a brief biography of all three, but it also provides a lot of detail on the seasons, games, and the recruitment of players. I was a bit overwhelmed with some of the details and found myself skipping ahead in the book to see how much longer I had in that chapter. But overall, I enjoyed it.
