Ohio State Coach Ed Hart faces more demands and loftier expectations as college football's "amateur model" implodes. Facing the constant blitz of new challenges that never take a day off, he must adapt and compete amid ever-changing rules that everyone ignores. Blitzed is the first book to take you inside College Football’s current lawless era. It is a thrill ride based on real-world stories detailing issues of big money, transfers, Name, Image & Likeness (NIL), race, academic integrity, social media, campus politics, corruption and mental health. Can anyone endure the constant pressure to stay ahead of a pack devouring everyone in its path?
