Download or read book Coach Catfish Smith and His Boys written by Glen Onley and published by Sunstone Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Milburn "Catfish" Smith rose from the humblest of beginnings in rural East Texas to lead the Carey Cardinals and the Mount Vernon Tigers to numerous football and basketball championships, including Texas State Schoolboy titles. In doing so, he defied the sports gurus of his day, many of whom subsequently credited him with three of the greatest coaching feats of his century. How did he do it? Here for the first time, the secret behind this most unusual and colorful man's success is revealed, unknown until now even by many of his former players, "His Boys." No slow climb to the top was acceptable for this firebrand coach. In his first year he took his Carey Cardinals, a school with less than one hundred enrollment and no basketball court, to a fourth place finish in the Texas Schoolboy state basketball tournament, including a twenty-six-game winning streak. The twenty-three-year-old coach followed that with a 50-2 season and the state championship, back when the smallest schools competed against the largest for the coveted title. World War II soon interrupted his career, as it did that of many of his contemporaries, but the experience was to change Catfish deeply, and in ways even his closest friends did not understand. Called to Mount Vernon, Texas in September 1943 to temporarily fill a coaching vacancy, Catfish exceeded all expectations. Seven years later, with two hundred fourteen victories and over twenty titles, including district, bi-district, regional, and state crowns, he was one of the most recognized high school coaches in the state of Texas.

But when he breaks his arm the first week of his senior year, his life and his dreams explode into a million pieces. Now forced to face his new reality, David sits on the bank of a hidden lake on his grandpa's ranch and contemplates an empty future. Desperate for hope, David opens his heart to the God he has mostly avoided, but the heavens are silent—or so he thinks. As dark thoughts fill his mind, they suddenly begin appearing as words inside a semi-transparent stone lying by the water. Bewildered and shocked, he shamefully reads his thoughts. But as his own thoughts fade from the smooth rock, someone else's takes their place. In a miraculous way, David soon realizes that the living stone called an Airlis has linked him with Elli, a young angel in another time and dimension fighting battles of her own. As they courageously summon the courage to face their obstacles together, neither realizes how much their friendship will forever change their lives. Airlis is a tale of love, faith, friendship, and family as a teenager and an angel are connected through a living stone that inspires each of them to reach for something more.
