"One Small Town, One Crazy Coach is a piece of Indiana basketball history that reawakens memories of the glory days of high school teams in Southern Indiana. " - Chris May, Executive Director, Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame "Fifty years ago the term 'Hoosier Hysteria' had a truly special meaning and a band of 'Spuds' solidified it. In short, Mike Roos's work about this unique team and special time is a must read! Any true 'Hoosier' will be taken to a better place! " - Jerry Reynolds , Director of Player Personnel and Broadcaster for NBA Sacramento Kings "For anyone who grew up in this "basketball crazy state"...A One Small Town, One Crazy Coach is a must read.A Mike Roos takes us A on a wonderful trip back to when Hoosier Basketball was the ONLY game in town... not just a story about High School Hoops... but an inside look at that glorious era when Indiana Boys basketball meant everything to an entire community." - Mike Blake, NBC Sports Commentator "Many of the schools Ireland High School played in 1962-1963 disappeared in the consolidation rush of the 1970s.

I can't imagine anyone more qualified than Mr. Roos to bring Indiana high school basketball history to life--especially in this the 50th anniversary year.
