Book Nick Saban vs  College Football

Download or read book Nick Saban vs College Football written by Christopher Walsh and published by Triumph Books. This book was released on 2014-09-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When coach Nick Saban arrived in Tuscaloosa in 2007, he boldly proclaimed &“We want to be a champion in everything that we do.&” Since that time, Alabama has won three national championships and become the nation's number one destination for recruits and the top source of NFL talent while simultaneously graduating its players. No other program has won more games, captured more awards, or come close to approaching the kind of consistent success as the Crimson Tide. In Nick Saban vs. College Football, author Christopher Walsh not only explains what separates Saban from his peers and compares his accomplishments to some of the all-time legends, but tells why, if there were a Mount Rushmore of college football coaches, Saban's face would already be on it. From his upbringing in West Virginia to his relationship with legendary coach Bill Belichick, &“the process&” has not only led to Saban having a statue along Alabama's &“Walk of Champions&” in front of Bryant-Denny Stadium, but the establishment of a new standard that may be unparalleled in college football history.

Book Who s Better  Who s Best in Coaching

Download or read book Who s Better Who s Best in Coaching written by Steve Silverman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ranking the best coaches in NFL history is no easy task. How do we decide which coach had a bigger on-field impact? Or the best tactical skills, both defensively and offensively? Not to mention measuring the strength of what a coach does behind the scenes, how he motivates his players, or how he keeps them from cracking under the pressure. Is the “Hoodie” the greatest coach ever, or just lucky to have Tom Brady? What about Bill Parcells, Vince Lombardi, and John Madden? Where do they rank? Such are the questions that pro football writer Steve Silverman addresses in Who’s Better, Who’s Best in Coaching?. As statistician Elliott Kalb did with baseball, basketball, and golf, and Silverman himself did with football players in Who’s Better, Who’s Best in Coaching?, Silverman takes the next logical step in this new book. Taking the analytical methods he developed over his years as a senior editor at Pro Football Weekly, he applies them to an evaluation of coaches going back to the earliest days of the NFL. The result is a fascinating ranking of the best of the sideline, from legendary old-timers like Vince Lombardi to present-day blue-collar coaches like Tom Coughlin. Throughout, Silverman discusses the many considerations that must be made when comparing modern coaches with coaches of past eras, or when comparing abrasive and domineering coaches with the more relaxed and Zen-like coaches. Including biographical essays on those top fifty coaches and detailed statistics for their career records in both the playoffs and regular season, Who’s Better, Who’s Best in Coaching? is a must-have for anyone who considers football more than just a game and who is fascinated by how it’s coached.

It also reveals which coaches dominated the 1920s or the 1950s or the 1980s or the 2010s; who was the greatest African-American head coach in Pro Football history; or who was the greatest Pro Football coach who never won a world championship?

Book Belichick

Download or read book Belichick written by Ian O'Connor and published by Houghton Mifflin. This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The definitive biography of the NFL's most enigmatic, controversial, and yet successful coach Bill Belichick is perhaps the most fascinating figure in the NFL--the infamously dour face of one of the winningest franchises in sports. As head coach of the New England Patriots, he's led the team to five Super Bowl championship trophies. In this revelatory and robust biography, readers will come to understand and see Belichick's full life in football, from watching college games as a kid with his father, a Naval Academy scout, to orchestrating two Super Bowl-winning game plans as defensive coordinator for the Giants, to his dramatic leap to New England, where he has made history. Award-winning columnist and New York Times best-selling author Ian O'Connor delves into the mind of the man who has earned a place among coaching legends like Lombardi, Halas, and Paul Brown, presenting sides of Belichick that have been previously unexplored. O'Connor discovers how this legendary coach shaped the people he met and worked with in ways perhaps even Belichick himself doesn't know. Those who follow and love pro football know Bill Belichick only as the hooded genius of the Patriots. But there is so much more--from the hidden tensions and deep layers to his relationship with Tom Brady to his sometimes frosty dealings with owner Robert Kraft to his ability to earn the unmitigated respect of his players--if not their affection. This is a man who has many facets and, ultimately, has created a notorious football dynasty. Based on exhaustive research and countless interviews, this book circles around Belichick to tell his full story for the first time, and presents an incisive portrait of a mastermind at work.

Book Notre Dame s Greatest Coaches

Download or read book Notre Dame s Greatest Coaches written by Moose Krause and published by Beyond Words/Atria Books. This book was released on 1993 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Knute Rockne, Frank Leahy, Ara Parseghian, and Lou Holtz. The names of these coaches have become synonymous with one of the few teams in college football that can truly be called a "dynasty" - the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. Owners of the two highest winning percentages in college football history, Rockne and Leahy won seven national championships between them. Parseghian was responsible for a pair of national titles, while Holtz has captured one since his reign began at South Bend." "Now these four legendary men are seen in a unique light - through the eyes of the inimitable Edward "Moose" Krause. He came to know, love, and admire these South Bend legends during his own sixty-year career with the Fighting Irish - and now he brings us into the huddle. Completed just before his death in 1992, this fascinating memoir combines Moose's own words with those of nearly one hundred former Notre Dame coaches, players, and administrators to paint an unforgettable portrait of four of the sport's greatest teachers and motivators." "Notre Dame's only two-sport Hall of Famer, in football and basketball, Moose was a three time All-American who played under Rockne, coached under Leahy, hired Parseghian during his thirty-two year stint as Notre Dame's Athletic Director, and later acted as a close advisor to Holtz. A poor boy from the stockyards of Chicago, Moose rose to become a legend both on and off the playing field - "Mr. Notre Dame."" "He recalls Rockne's inspiring locker room orations and his humor and courage in the face of adversity. Rock once coached from a hearse parked on the sidelines, painful phlebitis wracking his legs." "Moose vividly remembers Leahy, the ultimate perfectionist, who stalked the sidelines barking orders in his famous Irish brogue while refusing to let the Fighting Irish lose a single game between 1946 and 1949. His fiery intensity slowly ate away at his health, eventually forcing him to retire from coaching forever at the age of forty-five. Moose speaks warmly of his years with Parseghian, who, during his eleven glorious campaigns at South Bend, brought Notre Dame back to the ranks of the collegiate elite. And finally, he talks revealingly of Holtz, whose ferocity on the field is matched only by his humor off it. A complex and deeply caring man, Holtz coached Notre Dame to a stunning undefeated season, and the national championship, in 1988." "Interwoven through their stories and Moose's is a blow-by-blow account of Notre Dame's topsy-turvy 1992 campaign, when the school bounced back from a loss and a tie to win seven straight games and capture the Cotton Bowl title." "Notre Dame's Greatest Coaches tells the story of a sport, of a country, and of the enormous changes that both game and nation experienced during Moose Krause's long and extraordinary lifetime. As Moose himself says of his early days, "People had a different attitude about sports. They were just happy to be at the game." Moose Krause never lost his love for the game, and in this deeply felt memoir, even the most jaded of sports fans will recapture some of that love as well."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
