Switzer: The Players’ Coach

By Jimmie Tramel

A bootlegger's son from Crossett, Ark., became one of the most successful college football coaches in history. Switzer: The Players' Coach tells the story of Barry Switzer, who won three national championships as head coach at the University of Oklahoma. He also won a Super Bowl as coach of the Dallas Cowboys. But it is Switzer's relationships with players that define him. As he said, "It's not about championships and wins and games and all that. ... When you recruit a player, you have got them for life."
