I believe "The Last Amateurs" is about the Patriot League, if I am not mistaken, and Feinstein did the official scorebook at some Patriot League games. I am sure he knew he was part of the officiating team.
I haven't read any of his books, but I do know he wrote that Bobby Knight story, or one of them. I vaguely remember either on this forum or on a sports talk radio show with Feinstein where Knight personally blames a certain official for totally jobbing him.
