Summary: Interesting, mostly for nebraska followers
Comment: Interesting self portrait of one of the most successfull coaches in college football. Written in response to his famous "going for two" decisiom in the 1984 Orange Bowl which cost him his first title, and by his subsequent diagnosis and treatment of heart disease the following year. Good insights into why the "go for two" decision was made, his early life, and entrance into coaching. Also covers his near decision to leave for Colorado in the 70's as well as a little bit about his relationship with some of the players including one time quarteback and now assistant coach Turner Gill. Finishes about 1985. Discusses his faith and how it gives him perspective on the vagaries of a coaching career. Suffers somewhat from his natural shyness and therefore is a little superficial and gives the impression that he lacks warmth and empathy, which if you read "On Solid Ground" is clearly not the case. Would have given 5 stars if it was of more general interest, or if it would have been more personal like "On Solid Ground".
