Dick Vitale is best known for his role as a color commentator on ESPN and ABC college basketball broadcasts. His observations on the college game and his opinions about certain parts of it are well-documented during his TV commentary. But in reality, the TV sound bites are brief and allow little opportunity for Vitale to give his in-depth views about what is happening in college basketball, a sport that, in Vitale's opinion, may be the most popular in the world.How does Vitale really feel about college players jumping to the pros after only one or two years in college? Does TV have too much control over college basketball? What about the big business that Division I college basketball has become? Do coaches really deserve the money they make? Should the players get something for all their hard work? In Holding Court: Reflections on the Game I Love, Vitale hits on all of these subjects and more.
