Read the book and it was great! I should read it again. He talks about his upbringing, his life in high school and college and how he started the chess teams. If I recall, it was slow at first, then he had kids that really wanted to be on the teams. He also talked about getting sponsors, etc. for their competitions. If I'm not mistaken, he's a member of Kappa Alpha Psi.

I looked on his website to see if he had a fraternal affiliation, but nothing was mentioned.
Thanks!

Girl, it's been over 2 years since I've read the book! I'll try to check tomorrow for the book when I go back to work. I hope I'm correct.
*blah - back to work tomorrow. . .
