On this episode, we sat down with Coach Book Richardson! Coach Book has been an an assistant basketball coach for many institutions- Xavier, Marist College, University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown, but he is mostly known for his job as Assistant Coach at the University of Arizona. Coach Book walks us through his life, career and education at U.C.L.A. - University Corner of Lenox Avenue.

While coaching at University of Arizona, Book found himself at the center of the NCAA “bribery scandal” launched by the federal government. This probe investigated Adidas and NCAA coaches (Rick Pitino, Sean Miller, Will Wade, and Tony Bland) involvement in scouting and paying NCAA college basketball prospects to attend their schools. Ironically, none of the head coaches were prosecuted in this probe and ALL of the assistant coaches- who all happen to be black- were prosecuted.

We were inspired by Book’s honesty, transparency and willingness to speak about his journey. Can’t keep a good Book down!! Book is currently the Director and coach of AAU New York Gauchos.

Go Book, Go!
