Fans of the Don James era and anyone who loves college football are in for a gourmet feast. In meticulous yet breezy detail, Mike Gastineau recounts the greatest team in Washington Huskies football history, the undefeated 1991 national co-champions. Never-before-told stories about the indomitable Steve Emtman, the irrepressible Billy Joe Hobert and the savviness of coordinators Jim Lambright and Keith Gilbertson light up the drama of James’ pinnacle achievement. I’m still laughing about the late-game moment in front of 80,000 howling Nebraska fans when James told Hobert on the sidelines a big play was needed. Hobert stared down at James: “No shit, Don.” Hobert delivered. So does this book.
