From the Publisher
"I took so much from Bo when I became a head coach: 1. Winning by the rules is the most important thing. If you cheat, that equates to losing. 2. Work harder than anyone else. If you did it harder and you did it right, you are going to be more successful than your opponent. 3. Make decisions on just two criteria: Will it help us win? Is it good for the team? Everything else is irrelevant and a distraction." --Jim Harbaugh, from the foreword

"I swear it was like Bo was in our huddle. He knew everything we were going to do. When did I get over it? I never did." --Rex Kern, Ohio State quarterback

"He thought of himself as a cross between chief executive officer of the corporation of Michigan football and the patriarch of a family. He was always demanding, but at the same time he took an interest in you and remembered the small details of everyone's life and family." --Stan Edwards, Michigan running back

"He was the best coach coaching anything in college sports." --Bobby Knight
