Crackback book review

John Coy, author of Crackback, creates a character that may not by good at too many things, but is great at football. Miles Manning, starting corner for his high school football team, strives to be the best player he can be. With the team expected to win conference this year, Miles is under some extra pressure. Over the summer it seems as if all the other players have really bulked and are much bigger than him, he is getting a little insecure about his place on the team. With his dad, coaches, and even his best friend putting so much stress on him, he just doesn't know what to do. Miles does not want to disappoint his dad, but it seems as if every little mistake, his dad won't leave him alone, and Zach, his best friend, is offering him steroids. Zach claims that everyone is doing them and they will help Miles get bigger faster, but Miles is uneasy about the situation. Crackback is a great football book, and I'm sure that this kind of thing is going on all the time.
