An Atlanta insurance salesman, George Burnett, accidentally overheard a telephone conversation and became the centre of a scandal that riveted the world of college football in 1962-63. While this case has been written about frequently, Sumner relies on more than 3,000 pages of letters, reports, memos, depositions, and trial transcripts to reveal new facts and information never published before.
