Are you a crazed football fan like me? If you are, this book is great for us football fanatics like you and me. In my opinion Notre Dame has the richest college football legacy of all time. With thirteen National Championships and seven Heisman Trophy winners, ND can make its case easily. Even if you are anti-Notre Dame, this book is still great for anyone that appreciates football. Knute Rockne, football genius and the coach of Notre Dame for thirteen years, only lost twelve games in his career there. He also won five National Championships for the Irish. He is considered by many as the greatest college football coach as the 20th century. Ara Parseghian was the coach of the Fighting Irish for eleven years and led them to two National Championships. Frank Leahy, who also coached the Irish for eleven seasons, won four championships with the Irish. Lou Holtz, the fiery character who also coached Notre Dame for eleven seasons, led the Irish to the title in ’88. This book is based on stories about these timeless figures’ personalities, speeches, work ethic and much more all told by a former player and coach, “Moose Krause”, and other and Stephen Singular. These two authors do a really good job of explaining the characteristics of these greats and making you think that you are in the locker room listening to the “Win One for the Gipper” speech from Knute Rockne. When reading, I really thought of myself as a part of this wonderful legacy.
