Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 36
By 1977 the University of Evansville’s Purple Aces basketball team had won five small-college national championships. With a charismatic young coach and a freshman phenom, this small Indiana city hoped to see its team shine in the national spotlight. Then, on a foggy night, after just four games, the plane carrying the team and its coach crashed after takeoff, killing everyone on board.

An incredible “play-by-play” story of hope, despair, and perseverance.

I remember my dad telling me the story of this night. I believe it was December 13, 1977.

I remember my dad telling me the story of December 13, 1977 and the University of Evansville plane crash. He said he was a junior play practice at Mount Carmel high school about maybe 45 minutes or an hour away from Evansville and I text him after I got this book with my last credit from this last month and he said I remember that night like it was yesterday. he said it was a rainy and foggy night and the plane and mechanical issues and I remember Mr. Mike Blake saying he was just coming back from covering high school games at Roberts Stadium , he goes back to the station and he sees the station manager in there and I don’t remember what was exactly said, but his station manager looked at him and said it’s the Aces. I am enjoying this book because I only know bits and pieces of the story. Now I get to hear the whole story. I live in Mount Carmel Illinois just across the Wabash River from Evansville.

A Season on the Brink chronicles the basketball season that John Feinstein spent following the Indiana Hoosiers and their fiery coach, Bob Knight. Knight granted Feinstein an unprecedented inside look at college basketball - with complete access to every moment of the season. Feinstein saw and heard it all - practices, team meetings, strategy sessions, and mid-game huddles - during Knight's struggle to avoid a losing season.

Full access to a college basketball team and coach 36 years ago was unheard of.

I have read this book at least I will say 15 to 20 times. I never get tired of listening to this book I did not know this stuff went on. It is one of my all-time favorite books.
