Tim Green is the author of Football Genius. He is a former NFL linebacker so he is able to bring realism to the story. He knows what goes on behind the scenes. Any middle schooler who loves football will likely love this book. It has a lot of action and suspense related to football, life, and school. Anyone who's had a horrible coach will also be able to identify with Troy, the main character. Troy has a special ability...he knows what the next play is going to be before it's run. If only he can get the Atlanta Falcons to listen!
