Title: Way too much info
Review: I love sports biographies, especially about coaches. Woody Hayes, Bear Bryant, Knute Rockne... I have read a bunch. I like them to be sort of an extra long Sports Illustrated article, a nice recap of their life, career, and personality, or what made them the leaders they were. I don't need an entire chapter on a Friar's Club meeting, or whatever it was where they had a post season banquet. I don't need fight songs, especially unknown or unimportant ones printed out. This book sometimes spent 5 pages detailing something that needed only one page to describe. At points, it was painful to read. I just think he was the wrong writer for the subject matter: not that he wrote in a way I could not understand, but I've read more interesting math textbooks in my life.
