Counterfeit Amateurs: An Athlete's Journey Through the Sixties to the Age of Academic Capitalism

Allen Sack's book, Counterfeit Amateurs, is an insightful, first-hand account of the problems in intercollegiate sport. Sack masterfully intertwines his experiences as an athlete at Notre Dame with the problems facing collegiate sport today. He is able to go from the past to the present seemlessly and presents evidence that the the world of intercollegiate sport has become big business with a focus on commercialization and making money and away from the athletes who are producing the revenue. Thus, Sack makes a critical argument for athlete's rights.

This book is an incredibly important contribution to the field. I require it of my graduate course in Sport and Higher Education and the students loved it. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is a fan or teaches about collegiate sport.
