Reviews

“Jerry Parkinson cuts out the hyperbole and vitriol to give a compelling peek behind the curtain of how the NCAA’s controversial infractions process really works.”—Pete Thamel, sportswriter for Yahoo! Sports   “Infractions is a must-read for anyone involved in the business, administration, or legal side of college athletics in the United States.”—Maureen Weston, director of Pepperdine University’s Entertainment, Media, and Sports Law Program     “Parkinson’s unique perspective provides a clear picture of a highly reported but little understood process. The first comprehensive book about enforcement of NCAA rules is accessible for both academics and the average sports fan. . . . Infractions educates and entertains the reader.”—Peter Goplerud, coauthor of Sports Law (8th ed.) and member of the Sports Lawyers Association’s board of directors
