Twenty-five years after it spent sixteen weeks atop the New
York Times bestseller list, A Season on the Brink remains
the most celebrated basketball book ever written. Granted
unprecedented access to legendary coach Bob Knight and the
Indiana Hoosiers during the 1985–86 season, John Feinstein
saw and heard it all—practices, team meetings, strategy
sessions, and midgame huddles—as the team worked to return
to championship form. The result is an unforgettable
chronicle that not only captures the drama and pressure of
big-time college basketball but also paints a vivid portrait
of a complex, brilliant coach as he walks the fine line
between genius and madness.
