    Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics, 2015, 8, i-iii i © 2015 College Sport Research Institute Fourth and Long: The Fight for the Soul of College Football By John U. Bacon. Published 2013 by Simon & Schuster, New York, NY. (352 pages). ___________________________________________________________ Reviewed by Jonathan A. Jensen, Ph.D. Candidate The Ohio State University ____________________________________________________________ Reformers seeking a tawdry exposé of college football’s seamy underbelly, peppered with tales of crooked coaches and unprincipled student-athletes, will be left wanting by John U. Bacon’s latest work, Fourth and Long: The Fight for the Soul of College Football. While Bacon does provide a cursory review of past football-related scandals and foreshadows the downfall of former University of Michigan Athletic Director Dave Brandon, the student-athletes and their coaches are held up as the heroes of this book. The focus of the book is the incredible dedication of football players and their coaches at four institutions: the University of Michigan, Northwestern University, Penn State University, and The Ohio State University. The book provides glimpses of each at varying points during the 2012 season, with more attention paid to two programs whose seasons were inexorably linked: Penn State and Ohio State. Both programs were ineligible for bowl participation at the conclusion of the season. The sanctions for both were not the result of actions of current student-athletes or coaching staffs, which were in their first year. Thus, this daily struggle of the book’s antagonists to persevere through losses and injuries while paying for the sins of former coaches and administrators is the central theme of the work.
