Book Description
Whether you saw winning national championships in the 1983 Orange Bowl or 2001 Rose, Ivan Maisel says there's only one true nickname for the Miami Hurricanes - the No. 1 most overrated program in college football history. Who's his most overrated Heisman Trophy winner? Only the star of Michigan's 1997 national championship team, the Wolverines' Charles Woodson. Michigan fans will join the rest of the Big Ten in lamenting Maisel's assertion that the conference is the most overrated in the NCAA. The Maisel Report:College Football's Most Overrated and Underrated Players, Coaches, Teams, and Traditions by Ivan Maisel pulls no punches and takes no prisoners. With more than 20 years of sports journalism under his belt - including six with ESPN - Maisel has seen, talked to and worked with the best in the business. But he is setting the record once and for all about what are probably the biggest sports debates ever argued between fans. Football fans will be stunned when they see where he ranked the following stadiums, coaches and players: * Nick Saban
* Frank Beamer
* Eddie George
* Tim Tebow
* Charlie Weis
* Phillip Fulmer
* Bill Walsh
* Michigan Stadium
* Orange Bowl Nobody is left out. Maisel goes through the best of college football's history, including sections on the most over/underrated moments, national champions, Heisman Trophy winners, stadiums and more. The Maisel Report is not a fans' opinion of college football history, it is a detailed, highly-researched thesis that will make even the most die-hard fan of a team admit that their feelings have muddied their opinions and weakened all previous arguments about the who and what is the most overrated and underrated ever .

The Maisel Report: College Football's Most Overrated and Underrated Players, Coaches, Teams, and Traditions
By Deep Threat (Texas)
Those who love college football and good writing must have The Maisel Report. Ivan Maisel's latest book is full of opinions grounded in fact, not myth, that are guaranteed to pump up or piss off (maybe both) fans of every major program. Maisel gets it: the passionately held opinions of college football fans are what sets our favorite sport apart. Maisel also understands that opinions on college football are rooted in traditions as old as a century or events as fresh as last season. As Ole Miss fan William Faulkner wrote, "The past is never dead. It's not even past." If you can't start an argument with The Maisel Report, you're not trying.
