Product Description
The sound of the public address announcer yelling out "Deeeee for Threeeee!" reverberated throughout the Assembly Hall for four magnificent seasons, "The One-Man Fast Break" became a household term to college basketball fans around the country, and orange headbands sold out in sporting goods stores everywhere in central Illinois. Dee Brown will probably go down in history as the most popular player to ever suit up for the University of Illinois, as he became the ideal teammate and a positive role model for children all over the state during his four years of basketball bliss in Champaign-Urbana. The daily newspaper that covered Dee Brown more than any other, The News-Gazette in Champaign, has put together a tribute to a player no Fighting Illini fan will ever forget. Dee Brown: My Illini Years highlights his four seasons through numerous articles and stories first found in the pages of the papers sports section, along with dozens of vibrant full-color photos. The book also features tribute sections, an epilogue from Coach Bruce Weber, and quotes from teammates, coaches, and UI fans who witnessed the amazing and thrilling career of a college basketball legend that was highlighted by a trip to the 2005 national championship game.
