Alvarez was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2010. Bound in the original red boards with spine stamped in bright white. From the dust jacket: "Despite inheriting a moribund college football program, and half-empty stadium, Barry Alvarez never compromised his values, never flinched -- even after a 1-10 first season -- and never stopped believing in his blue print for success at the University of Wisconsin. He had a plan and he executed it. By establishing a solid foundation, adhering to fundamentals and demanding an uncommon toughness from his players, Alvarez became the architect of three Rose Bowl triumphs in the 90s and became the school's all-time winningest football coach. While changing the culture of the sport on the Madison campus, -- raising expectations to heretofore unthinkable levels Alvarez left an indelible mark on the Badgers during his 16 seasons on the sidelines. Not only did Alvarez take over a Big Ten footwipe and build the program into national prominence, but he sustained the success by sticking to a plan rooted to his upbringing in Western Pennyslvania and his exposure to three legendary coaches, Nebraska's Bob Devaney, Iowa's Hayden Fry and Notre Dame's Lou Holtz. In his autobiography DON'T FLINCH Alvarez talks about the lessons that he learned from his mentors, the hurdles that he had to overcome as a young assistant and high school coach, and the challenge of taking over his own college program. He also addresses the reality of living in a fishbowl, especially from his family's perspective. Alvarez, in turn, shares his formula and maps out a strategy for young coaches who are seeking to achieve similar goals.". SIGNED by the AUTHOR. 1st ed? (No additional printings listed). Hardcover. Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 8vo. 260pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping. 1st ed? (No additional printings listed).
