The NCAA and the Exploitation of College Profit-Athletes: An Amateurism That Never Was provides a comprehensive historical, sociological, legal, financial, and managerial argument for the reclassification of profit-athletes as employees.

The authors trace how Power Five college sports have morphed into a hyper professionalized and commercialized sport-business enterprise.

From the quickening pulse of that first glance to the gut-twisting pull of space given, but not asked for, Richards chronicles the emotional journey of love, tension, and heartbreak with honest sincerity.

With his farcical "burlesque autobiography", he describes a series of disreputable characters all of whom he claims were his ancestors.
