Buying In juxtaposes women's college sports with the historical transformations that set the stage for contemporary big-time college sports. Miller draws on positive psychology to create a framework he calls "positive anthropology." He uses this lens to highlight athlete exploitation, pay-for-play, and other issues that affect college sports teams.
