So this memoir is a bit special to me. Rex is from my hometown and graduated from my high school about 10 years before I did. Every day I saw his picture above the gym held up as one of Kentucky‘s finest playing basketball for UK and then the NBA. He lays bare NCAA corruption and racism. Unfortunately, opiate and gambling addiction caused him arrests and problems in his marriage and family life. Slowly he has rebuilt it sober. Loved this one!
Megabooks Oh and his coauthor wrote for the same college newspaper I did about 10 years before my time there. Crazy coincidence! 1mo
Chelsea.Poole Totally not on my radar and I don‘t usually go for sports memoirs but I can‘t resist a Meg approved memoir, so on the list it goes 😊 1mo
RebL Six degrees of Rex Chapman! He‘s the only reason I ever visit formerly known as Twitter. 1mo

Megabooks @Chelsea.Poole I‘m not sure whether it‘s my connection to the subject, but it‘s short and interesting. A quick listen! 1mo
Megabooks @RebL I did not know he was such an X influencer! Happy for him that he‘s found that and is doing positive things with it. 1mo
