Mildred Collins (ohio)
This is an excellent book. I bought it for my future grandson-in-law for Christmas. He is just in his first coaching position right out of college. I think it will be a big help to him.

Anyone who knows the game or has coached should read this book. Wooden is top notch and classy...the way every coach should be. A great example of a coach and man.

I loved the coach and his teams. Book is just a slow read, but interesting for those of us who witnessed his talented teams.
