I read thru this book and kept telling my husband that I love John Wooden. My son had a very challenging season in one of his sports because of coaching. I appreciate Coach Wooden's honesty in sharing his mistakes as well as victories. I wish that all coaches could adopt his pyramid of success and learn from his mistakes without having to make them with the teens on their teams.
