Unstoppable: A Story of Love, Faith, and the Power Couple Who Ignited the College Sports Broadcasting Boom – by George Hirthler

Posted on 09/07/2023 by Mark

I got this book from Netgalley, so I can read and review it before it’s published.

Sometimes I choose books purely on the title and the description, and this was one of them. I had no who this power couple was, but I was interested to learn more.

Rick was a great television programmer and Dee was a great salesperson. Put them together, and they formed a company called Raycom that got the basketball and footballs rights for television broadcasts for conferences and universities. It all started with a basketball tournament that was in Alaska. It was really neat to see how each got started in their profession, how they met, and how they operated their business.

Hi, I am Mark. I started writing in 2011 about high school football, daddy blogging since 2015, and reviewing books since 2023. My writing style is unique, my sense of humor is a little crazy, and I’m not embarrassed to share any of it. You can email me at thedadspeaks@icloud.com.
