The Only Thing
Author(s):
Craig Alpaugh
Smooch Smathers is the head coach of the State University Roughriders, one of the very worst college basketball teams in America. Smooch is under extreme pressure from the fans, students, alumni and administration to win—at any cost. A man of integrity, he refuses to do what everybody else is doing—cheat. But, ultimately, with his job at stake, he gives in to the threats and decides just once to bend the rules of recruitment to attract star talent. The ramifications of this decision shake the university to its very foundation. "This is a story that goes far beyond sports. It's about exploitation, racism and dominance. It's about an American system that both slaps the dirty winning hand—and shakes it." (L.A. Life) Area staging.
