Which characters play important roles that relate to the overall theme?
Frank Harris violated almost every recruiting rule but no one would stand up to him or make notice that he was violating the rules. Then Roy Fellows and Kadeem's father convinces Kadeem to go to the head of NCAA and tell them about Teller.
If the book was well written, what made it that way?
The book was well written but it was to short to make a good story.
What was the author’s purpose for writing this book?
To entertain. You could also learn more about recruiting rules
Would you recommend this book?
I would not recommend this book because nothing really ever happens and it's to short to proved any detail or a good story
Theme
The theme of this book is to do the right thing. Kadeem really wanted to go to Teller because of their football team and the very very nice cheerleaders there, but he knew that they weren't following the rules so he turned the school in.
