This book was truly cool. Everything that happened in it happened for a reason. Some of the players on that team are now in the National Football League like Terry Glenn, Eddie George, Bobby Hoying, Orlando Pace, and Shawn Springs. John Cooper was coach who had his job up in the air. This is a great book if you like football.
John Cooper coming out
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
Day to day, week to week review of events during the season becomes a bit monotonous in this account of a great year for buckeye faithful. But, what does come out, is the real personality of John Cooper in a way that up to this point in time, is rarely appreciated by football fans. Hardline buckeye fans, home grown Ohio boys who did not take to well to the southern accent in Woody Hayes's office, soften to the reality that this is the 1990's and this man, John Cooper, is a credit to himself, his program, and the university. Behind the scenes accounts of how he deals with players, life challenges are excellent. Inner workings of how the week goes to prepare for Saturdays game give a good flavor of college football life. Dealing with the heart- break of another Michigan loss, putting in perspective is attempted....but not dealt with very well. Overall, good book, if you still think John Cooper belongs in Tennessee, read it.
