Great to Remember a Great Man,
By
This review is from: Remembering Bear (Hardcover)
This book is rather unusual in format. It is a series of news articles written by Birmingham News sports writers at the death of Bear Bryant. Bear Bryant coached his teams from Maryland, Kentucky, Texas A&M, and Alabama to the greatest coaching record of all times. He overcame Amos Alonzo Stagg's record in 20 less years than Stagg had accomplished the goal. He only had one losing season in all 37 years he coached. His record is phenomenal and even though I have great respect for Joe Paterno and Bobby Bowden, even their records cannot compare when you check the stats. Today, more games are played every year. It allows these modern coaches to get more wins quicker. Both Paterno and Bowden are a good bit older than Bear ever lived to be. Bear is truly a legend. The best thing about the book is the photos. It is full of great pictures throughout his era of coaching. When Bear retired, he died less than a month later. What else could be expected from a man who lived, ate, and breathed football all his life. This book does help us remember a great man. Buy it today.
