Abstract:

An unapologetic insider’s account of the corruption and greed within college athletics. College sports may have begun as a benign attraction, but it has since morphed into quasi-professional athletic leagues that exploit higher education, taxpayers, and students. A foremost expert in ethics in intercollegiate athletics, Dr. Gerald Gurney spent his career fighting the greed, collusion, and corruption among college presidents, athletic directors, and coaches, playing a pivotal role in the movement for athlete well-being and academic integrity.

Abstract:

Abstract Victory and Celebration: An Introduction to Greek Athletics explores how the poems, statues, and other objects used by athletic victors to commemorate their victories in the sixth and fifth centuries BCE gave value and meaning to these victories. These victories, whether in running, boxing, youth events, or equestrian events, did not speak for themselves; their meanings were not obvious or natural but had to be produced and defended. This was the work of the victory memorials, in the story they told of the events and victors, the elements they elevated in their accounts and the elemen

Abstract:

This chapter discusses the NCAA's efforts to restore academic respectability to college sports. For decades, the college sports establishment promoted rules of fair play and a level playing field in public, while coaches and boosters surreptitiously sought ways to evade those rules. However, the alarming spate of cheating and fraud in the 1970s and 1980s stirred up efforts at reform. Those efforts, however, did not lead in the direction that might have been anticipated from the overt events. Though related to the scandals, the major turning points of the era had mixed consequences. Changes in

Abstract:

This chapter shifts the focus from the players to the coaches. After the basketball scandal broke in January of 1951, colleges, with the aid of many writers, were quick to label the players' misdeeds “criminal” and to attribute them to players' lack of moral values and flawed characters. Yet the blame for the pervasive corruption in college athletics did not rest on the shoulders of the athletes alone. The chapter argues that the college coaches, administrations, and other such authorities were also in part responsible for the gambling issue, although unlike the players, they were largely able

Abstract:

A substantial body of empirical work has demonstrated links between hope and positive psychosocial functioning within the general field of psychology. Surprisingly little attention has been paid to the importance of hope within the athletic domain. The minimal research that does exist suggests that hope is associated with enhanced athlete well-being and performance. The reasons for such associations, however, remain uncertain. Potential mechanisms underlining the hope–performance relationship may include more efficacious goal-setting practices, increased effort, diminished anxiety, and enhance

Abstract:

The descriptions and examples of unethical behaviors in sport in this book will challenge readers to rethink how they view sport and question whether participating in sport builds character―especially at the youth and amateur levels. Sport potentially can teach character as well as social and moral values, but only when these positive concepts are consistently taught, modeled, and reinforced by sport leaders with the moral courage to do so. The seeming moral crisis threatening amateur and youth sport―evidenced by athletes, coaches, and parents alike making poor ethical choices―and ongoing scan
