Inside The Rise of Tennessee Basketball
by Dane Bradshaw
Be a part of the 2006-2007 Tennessee Volunteers Basketball Season! Through the eyes of Dane Bradshaw, share the early morning workouts, the sacrifices, the injuries, the road trips, the personalities, the worries of a college athlete, the academic demands, and the game results that lead to the agony of defeat and the thrill of victory.
The foreword for Vertical Leap has been written by Coach Bruce Pearl. Under Coach Pearl’s leadership, there has been a major leap in the vitality, competitiveness and popularity of The University of Tennessee’s mens basketball team. Dane Bradshaw, the lone senior and team captain for the 2006-2007 season, played an important role in the team’s success, including their journey to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen.
Dane kept a journal throughout the season. Those journal entries form the foundation for his book—Vertical Leap. This book provides an insider’s perspective that any fan of basketball will enjoy.
UT’s first official game of the season was on November 10, 2006. However, for the players and coaching staff the season began months before the first game. Soon after the March Madness hurrahs end, preparation for the new season begins. Coaches and players do everything within their power to be the last team standing in the season to follow. Dane’s behind-the-scenes coverage is organized into three major sections: Preseason Preparation, Season Play, and Post Season Play. Vertical Leap is a 232-page book, including 32 pages of full-color photographs that captures the entirety of the team’s 2006-2007 basketball season.
