GO GATORS - Peter Golenbeck
Go Gators! takes the reader through every milestone of this legendary team, from their humble origins through their gradual rise to perennial New Year’s Day bowl-game contestants.
Widely considered to be one of the dean of sportswriters, Peter Golenbock has authored six New York Times bestsellers including The Bronx Zoo, Personal Fouls, and Cowboys Have Always Been My Heroes. 30 black-and-white photos and first-time interviews with over 60 Gators who played between 1946 and 2001 are offered.
The BUCPOWER.COM review
With so many Florida Gators moving into the NFL under Steve Spurrier's coaching, this book dedicated to the history of the college football team has particular relevance to NFL fans.
Written by Peter Golenbeck, it takes the form of interviews with players and coaches from Gator history and covers every season. The sections involving the likes of Scot Brantley, Errict Rhett and Danny Wuerffel are particularly interesting, but so many other future NFL players appear in the 600+ pages.
The book takes in events right up to Steve Spurrier's resignation at the end of the 2001 season and is a seriously entertaining read throughout.
