A riveting read, his ripped-from-the-headlines true story
will both captivate and inspire you. With the infamous Arizona State
University point shaving
scandal serving as backdrop, Gagliano the man who orchestrated one of the
largest scandals in sports history - tells a tale of greed, corruption and the
pursuit of redemption.
Reminiscent of The
Wolf of Wall Street and MoneyBall, this gripping
personal life story will carry the reader through the internal struggles of
poor life choices and fortune squandered. It is a captivating journey of
morally questionable decisions, and the pursuit of freedom, all during a
harrowing ride to redemption.
Looking back, I¹ve learned to break
life down to its simplest form.
All life choices are black and
white‹right and wrong. There are no grey areas.
~ Joseph N. Gagliano

About the book:
In 1994, Joseph N. Gagliano calmly sat back, put his hands
behind his head and smiled as the NCAA clocked ticked down the remaining last
seconds of the game. It was the third game in a row Joe had bet on where the
point spread had to land on a specific number. With millions at stake, was he
nervous? Not at all. As the buzzer sounded on the 3rd game, his duffle bags
were filled with over $5,000,000 in cash. How? Joe had fixed the game.
No Grey Areas tells the incredible, true story of
the man who orchestrated the largest sports point shaving betting scam in
sport¹s history. But that is only where the story begins. It is always the cover up, not the crime,
where white collar criminals get caught.
Joe was caught, convicted and served time in Federal prison for
his role in coordinating and financing the 1994 ASU point shaving scandal. His
journey continued as Joe came out of prison in late 2000 with a passion to
clear his name and a desire to remove perceptions held by others of him. He
embarked on an aggressive path to success; building a sizeable chain of full
service car washes, making millions in real estate, living a life of luxury,
and even buying a private jet just to get to his yacht in San Diego quicker.
But the story does not end there. Being an easy target, with the
financial collapse of 2008, Joe's decisions and grey areas entangled him in
another felony. In 2013, he went away to Federal prison again.
Inside these pages, you'll get a backstage pass on what it was
like to slowly fall into the grey areas of greed, corruption, money, and
business. Joe's brutally honest, detailed telling of this life of infamy,
history, and successes along with the consequences of his decisions will amaze
and inspire you.
This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
