Getting to Us

Narrator Mark Deakins takes a straightforward approach to each chapter of this audiobook. The work is a biographical compilation of some of the best college basketball and football coaches today. While Deakins could have crafted a voice for each one, that may have come across as a bit overdone. Instead, his own clear, steady tone carries this examination of how coaches accomplish what they do. Davis's solid reporting uncovers fascinating traits and habits, along with stories of how these coaches got to where they are today. One of the most consistent narrators around, Deakins keeps the listener attuned with his no-nonsense approach. A must-listen for sports fans and young coaches. M.B. � AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
