''A Season on the Brink'' is a 1986 book by John Feinstein which detailed the 1985-86 season of Indiana University's men's basketball team, led by the controversial coach Bob Knight. Granted almost unprecedented access to the Indiana University basketball program, as well as insights into Knight's private life, the book spawned a new genre, as a legion of imitators wrote works covering a single year of a sports franchise. == Writing the book ==
Feinstein was paid a $17,500 advance to write the book, and had to take a leave of absence from ''The Washington Post''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.c-span.org/video/?302898-1/qa-john-feinstein )〕 Feinstein expected to lose money doing the book, but proceeded with the project anyway in the hopes that it would be good and convince someone to have him write a second book. Feinstein spent six months with the 1985-86 team. He had previously covered Bob Knight in his role as the National College Basketball Writer for ''The Washington Post''. Remarking on his relationship with Bob Knight, Feinstein said the following: The book is noted for showing many facets of Knight's character. Feinstein depicts a coach who is quick with a violent temper, but also one who never cheats and strictly follows all of the NCAA's rules.
