Download or read book Dare to Dream written by Jim Calhoun and published by Crown Archetype. This book was released on 2000-06-19 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The charismatic basketball coach at the University of Connecticut reveals the victorious secrets behind his team's breathtaking journey to the 1999 NCAA Division I National Championship--and along the way shares his philosophy for winning. It was one of those games that basketball fans will talk about for years. Here was the seemingly unbeatable Duke Blue Devils pitted against the first-time finalist Connecticut Huskies, and at stake was the ultimate crown: the National Championship. On that unforgettable night in St. Petersburg, Jim Calhoun and his amazing team wrote a new chapter in the storied history of the UConn Huskies program, putting the perfect exclamation point on a season to remember. But behind the high drama that fateful night in Florida lay an even more fascinating tale of one man's rise to college basketball preeminence. In Dare to Dream, the Huskies iron-willed coach, Jim Calhoun, for the first time shares his own story about his inspirational family and the tragedies they faced; about his early successful years at Northeastern, where he began to compile the first half of a unique double (he's the only coach to have won at least 250 games at two different Division I schools); and about his assumption of ultimate responsibility at the sleeping giant in Storrs, Connecticut. Along the way, Jim Calhoun paints fascinating portraits of the players who have done battle for him, and of the unsung heroes behind the scenes whose hard work and dedication to Connecticut basketball have kept the dream alive. In just thirteen years, Jim Calhoun has turned the Huskies into one of the leading basketball programs in the country, and in this moving, funny, and inspiring book, he takes us behind the scenes to show us just how he did it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Losing dentures while casting a shrimp net and coloring his hair with chimney soot are two examples of real life experiences that Rev. Joseph E. Fulford will share in these heart-felt memoirs. A veteran of World War II, an ex-butcher, a retired United Methodist minister and a born story teller, he is now able to use his degree in journalism from the University of Florida to share many of his interesting and humorous adventures encountered in his life. He has set in the course of his ministry, when appropriate, to make people smile and laugh. He finds much gratification from seeing moods change and spirits lifted. Fulford has told these stories to his congregation, three children, seven grandchildren, and his great granddaughter. They enjoyed them immensely and highly recommended their retelling. Take a journey with Fulford through some amusing situations and some downright funny happenings that will not only bring laughter, but will bring closeness to God. While reading, keep in mind those sage words from Proverbs 15:15, "A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance," and Proverbs 17:22, "A merry heart doeth good like medicine."
