Illegal Procedure: A Sports Agent Comes Clean on the Dirty Business of College Football (9781608197200): Josh Luchs, James Dale: Books. Praise for Illegal Procedure: Get ready for the wildest ride in sports literature. Josh Luchs takes you through two decades of what goes on behind the scenes in sports: where the money comes from, how it's handed out, where it goes, and what it means. Not only does Luchs name names, but he tells detailed stories and anecdotes. Just as the Valachi Papers helped to weaken the mob, this story may help clean up some of the shady dealings in college football. It's a must read.—John Clayton, ESPN With unflinching honesty and no holds barred, Illegal Procedure would be an entertaining and enlightening read at any time. Considering the NCAA scandals of the last couple years, it's now an important one also. This is the reality college sports, not the charade presented on TV.—Dan Wetzel, Yahoo Sports Josh Luchs dared to go where few had gone before and in the process exposed some very ugly truths about the sports agent business.—Morgan Spurlock, award-winning director of Super Size Me and The Dotted Line Josh Luchs’ invaluable work has opened up new vistas for us as policy makers, politicians, and education and sports administrators. As we strive to protect student-athletes from exploitation, I'd like to thank Josh for doing all that he has to break this abusive cycle and to inject more integrity and honor into big-time collegiate sports.—U.S. Congressman Bobby Rush In my informed opinion, as someone who has experienced up-close and personal the backroom deals that occasionally pervade big-time college football, Josh's pronouncements are incontrovertible and provide an entertaining inspection of the world of the ‘student athlete.’ —Brian Jones, former NFL linebacker and college football analyst, CBS Sports Nobody knows better than Luchs just how crooked college football is….this should be in demand. – Library Journal [Luchs] writes (assisted by co-author Dale) with humor [and] honesty…A troubling, entertaining indictment of the hypocrisy of big-time sports. – Kirkus Reviews
