4.0 out of 5 stars Buckeye Must Read, January 30, 2007

By	Michael Smith (Baltimore, MD USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If you are a tried and true Buckeye Football fan you need to read this book. An unbelievable set of stories from the famous and not so famous stars of the past. If you wish to read about what it was like to play under the coaching staff over the years this book is a must read. Most interesting is how Woody Hayes is portrayed by his players. One mistake does not a life make, and Woody Hayes is given his due here. As a big fan of Jim Tressel, and his outlook on coaching, I would have wished more content on how Coach Tressel handles (more like juggles) the coaching of a top notch program within the NCAA. I guess you cannot expect everything, but to a man I was happy to read each story.

This a must for every Buckeye fan. Ohio State is the greatest tradition in college football...period! This is not just from the fan's point of view...the former players tell it best!

3.0 out of 5 stars Three Stars (as given by a UGA fan)..., January 25, 2009

By	A. Smith "A Really Tall Southern Belle" (Atlanta, GA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this book as part of my boyfriend's Christmas. Prior to wrapping it, I decided to sift through the book to learn tidbits about Ohio State... I actually enjoyed it and my blood smells of SEC! lol

My boyfriend, now my ex, loved the book and he's not much of a reader, so that's saying a lot... especially since it wasn't a picture book. :o)
