Dick Burleson was a SEC Football Official for 25 Years. This is a story of his career with a Foreword by Vince Dooley. Includes recollections and encounters with Bear Bryant and others.
Interesting insight and some hilarious scenarios that take place on and off the field during one official's career. Informative and satisfying behind-the-scenes information and an impressive recollection detailing the personalities of many of the greatest coaches in the SEC. This book feels personal, from the photos and stories to the notes from coaches; I'm glad Mr. Burleson allowed me a small glimpse into his world.
This book is a must for football fans. Shares the experiences of a SEC referee and some of the funnier things he has come across. You will laugh out loud a few times!
