The definitive biography of a legendary athlete. The Shrug. The Shot. The Flu Game. When most people think of him, they think of his beautiful shots with the game on the line, his body totally in sync with the ball - hitting nothing but net. But for all his greatness, this scion of a complex family from North Carolina's Coastal Plain has a darker side: He's a ruthless competitor and a lover of high stakes. There's never been a biography that encompassed the dual nature of his character and looked so deeply at Jordan on and off the court - until now.

In Stoops's journey from player to struggling graduate assistant to legendary head coach, it becomes clear that his dedication to football is about far more than the sport itself. Big Game Bob, as he is known by adorning Sooners, made a name for himself not only by rebuilding the OU football program and leading the team to multiple conference championships but also by adhering to a strong set of principles at a time when corruption was rampant across the NCAA.

The Score Takes Care of Itaelf
I enjoyed reading this book discovering the principles and leadership qualities of Bill Walsh. Looking at only his coaching career doesn’t do him justice in terms of how he molded an organization into a mirror image of himself. As someone who has spent 20+ years in the corporate world, a lot of the principles discussed are still valid today. I recommend this book to anyone that’s fan of football, attempting to discover new leadership principles and who wants to better themselves.

Phenomenal Leadership training
How many people with their own style of leadership could achieve the same winning results as Bill Walsh had with the San Francisco 49ers?
If you don’t recall, when Bill Walsh took over as Head Coach and General Manager, the 49ers were rated as the worst team in the NFL.
Three years later they won the Super Bowl and continued to create the West Coast offense and a true dynasty and won many championships.

I am a coach for a high school team, there is so much I learned from this book that I bought a physical copy so I can mark labels on it. This book has helped me with my current job as well as coaching football. If you are fan of football I suggest reading this!

Amazing and valuable insights on coaching
I wasn't sure what to expect from this audiobook, I'm not an NFL fan. But what I can say as a soccer coach is it had as many coaching lessons and insights as Alex Ferguson's "Leading" book.
It is perhaps one of the most complete writings I have come across regarding the coach as a leader.
Every coach, in any sport, would benefit from the timeless wisdom of Bill Walsh.
