I was very fortunate to read a book that gave you a feelimg that there are few football coaches out there who can coach football the old fashion way: physical discipline, honesty, and being a great motivator. For Bo to share the stories about Woody Hayes was just awesome. I feel that Bo went thru a great experince in his life time. I have read this book probably 10 times and I like what he critcizes about the NCAA making these ridiculous standards. May God bless him.

If you are a fan at all of michigan, or know anything about Bo Schembechler you will love this book. It's a great biography about a great coach. This book takes you to a small family in Ohio to a assistant coach under Woody Hays then to Ann Arbor to become one of the most famous coaches in NCAA history, I HIGHLY recomend this book... GO BLUE!

If you love football this book is a must read. The stories about Bo and Woody are tremendous. I wish all young coaches would read this book before establishing a coaching philosophy. The character of Bo is inspiring and proves that you can still win and do it the right way.

Excellent book and a must have for any Michigan Football fan. This book gives great insight into his life (which was mostly football). It is filled with humor and examples of the personality and character of Bo from his humble beginnings to his life as a semi-celebrity.

For anyone who knew of Bo (and if you have to ask Bo who, don't bother reading on) or watched him coach for the two decades at the Big House, you will love this book. This is a behind the scenes look at what you always wished you were a fly on the wall to observe. This gives you another view of what the man was really like. I actually read about some of the players I knew when I attended. Most importantly, it shows the kind of human being Bo was: the BEST! This will make you laugh, cry, and scream "Go Blue" with every chapter.
