His UCLA teams reached unprecedented heights in the 1960s and 70s, capped by a run of ten NCAA championships in twelve seasons and an eighty-eight-game winning streak, records that stand to this day. Wooden also became a renowned motivational speaker and writer, revered for his "Pyramid of Success." Seth Davis of Sports Illustrated and CBS Sports has written the definitive biography of Wooden, an unflinching portrait that draws on archival research and more than two hundred interviews with players, opponents, coaches, and even Wooden himself. Davis shows how hard Wooden strove for success, from his All-American playing days at Purdue through his early years as a high school and college coach to the glory days at UCLA, only to discover that reaching new heights brought new burdens and frustrations. Davis also reveals how at the pinnacle of his career Wooden found himself on questionable ground with alumni, referees, assistants, and even some of his players. His was a life not only of lessons taught, but also of lessons learned."--back cover. 600 10 $a Wooden, John, $d 1910-2010. 650 0 $a Basketball coaches $z United States $v Biography. 941 $a 1 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107052124.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3F3D20D0E25C11E8B947250B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
