College sports on the brink of disaster : the rise of pay-to-play and the fall of the scholar-athlete / John LeBar & Allen Paul ; foreword by Scott Hirko, PhD.
"[An updated version of the author's book 'Marching Toward Madness,' which] cites twenty-one reasons why the pro-pay position is wrong, among them the prospect that the player talent pool will be concentrated to even fewer rich schools; recruiting wars will lead to more frequent scandals; and the regulatory powers of the NCAA will exponentially increase. Worst of all, pay-for-play will encourage schools to shirk even further the imperative to educate the young athletes. 'College Sports on the Brink of Disaster' presents comprehensive reforms to end cheating and corruption in college sports, to put academics first, and to end the peonage of non-white athletes once and for all"--Provided by publisher.
