You kind of feel bad for the kid because you know he could do so well if he really wanted to be. In the 1st chapter we meet one of the protagonist's, a guy named Darryl Thomas who was a mellow, laid back kid, who lacked motivation. This book is written to show what Bob Knight does when his back is against the wall and what he needs to do to get himself and his team success. We are introduced in this story to Bob Knight who in the past years had went to the olympics and won a gold medal, and the season after he won gold in 1985 he had his worst season of his career at Indiana. The climate is mostly dreary cool, rainy days. The Setting for most of the book except for road games is Bloomington, Indiana. ![]() By the way, the entire book is in Feinstein's point of view. I felt like Feinstein's point of view allowed us the audience to see the good, the bad, and the ugly of Bobby Knight. John Feinstein wrote this book masterfully, which is why this book was once a best seller. It shed new light in the life of Bobby Knight. I am so glad that I chose this book "Season on the Brink". ![]()
