A group that calls itself the El Chiriacco Group claims that it is in the final stages of a e-book on college sports recruiting titled, “Kim Kardashian and the Art of Rebounding”. The book will focus on the recruiting of New Jersey Nets power forward, Kris Humphries in 2004, when he was a student-athlete at the University of Minnesota. The group has noted that the book also will highlight basketball agent Marc Cornstein of Pinnacle Management Corp., and the group says that parts of the book will be devoted to Cornstein's ethics and character throughout Humphries' marriage with Kardashian. However, the group has made it clear that Kim Kardashian and her family are not subjects of the book, but associated only by her relationship to Kris Humphries.
The authors say that the e-book is the first in a trilogy including “Recruiting Memoirs” and “Not So Secret Agents”. These real-life tell-all accounts intend to paint a provocative portrait of the predominantly darker side of college and professional basketball recruiting.
In the words of the authors, the e-book is "intended as a small gift to the world of basketball, for the unforgettable memories and services rendered over a span of 40 years. At the same time it is a message, perhaps even a fair warning to all the actors on the stage of basketball, who seem to have gone haywire with greed, power and disrespect, that they will eventually face the music."

There’s so much that must go on in recruiting that people don’t want to know.
