5.0 out of 5 stars Holtz tells you how to build a winner!
Lou Holtz is an excellent football coach. In this book he shows the reader what it takes to win in the high pressure sport of college football. The chapter on Lou Holz's view of life is worth the price alone.

1.0 out of 5 stars Holtz can coach...Holtz can't write
I love Notre Dame football and am a huge fan of Lou Holtz. But this account of the Irish's championship run is excruciatingly dry to the point of frustrating. Lou's quoted many times saying "...he'll be a fine player..." ugh! Passion and wit were lacking throughout the book. If you want prose above a fifth grade level, save your money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Holtz plays the game of life, August 23, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Fighting Spirit: A Championship Season at Notre Dame (Paperback)
Coach Holtz gives a great description of what his championship season at Notre Dame was like. From player quotes to narratives by outside sources, this book is well worth reading. Just as importantly, Holtz gives his view on the game of life and how to succeed in it.

5.0 out of 5 stars great book, March 2, 2008
Great book about the Championship season of 88. Lou is a master motivater and takes you inside the college football world and tells what it takes to be a champion. If you give this a bad review, you must be one of the many Irish haters.
