The author spent his formative years in the great State of Ohio; that was, it seems, an eon ago. After completing high school, he entered the U. S. Army and retired after thirty years in the MI Branch as a CWO4. This is fine, but what prompted him to write this book?

As stated above, he grew up in Ohio. Ohio, as most people are aware, is a state whose residents are basically football fanatics. The author is such a fan (fanatic).

This, the author’s first manuscript, was written particularly for readers who weren’t able to see, follow, and truly appreciate the careers of the magnificent coaches who are featured in the pages of this book.
