Book Synopsis Tigers Vs. Jayhawks by : Mark Godich
Download or read book Tigers Vs. Jayhawks written by Mark Godich and published by Ascend Books Llc. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one saw it coming. Missouri wasn't ranked in The Associated Press preseason poll in 2007. Kansas didn't even receive a vote. Then the season kicked off. The Tigers and the Jayhawks kept winning. Unimaginable upsets became the norm. And there they were on the Saturday after Thanksgiving - bitter border rivals squaring off at a neutral site with the No. 1 ranking in the country on the line. "You could feel the hostility in the air," said Mizzou backup quarterback Chase Patton. Each team took the field at Arrowhead Stadium knowing it was two victories from playing for the national championship. Before a packed house and a national television audience, Missouri and Kansa delivered the most entertaining and tension-filled game of the college football season. They were two traditionally middling programs that had so much to gain-and everything to be. Book jacket.
Book Synopsis Tales from the Missouri Tigers by : Alan Goforth
Download or read book Tales from the Missouri Tigers written by Alan Goforth and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: College sports fans around the nation know it as the University of Missouri, the home of the Tigers. But for the legions of fans from St. Louis to Columbia, it’s simply Mizzou, and there is no better place to be on a crisp fall afternoon than Faurot Field at Memorial Stadium. Don Faurot himself, as a graduate student, helped lay the football sod in 1926, and the playing surface was named after the legendary coach in 1972. It’s where Norris Stevenson broke the color barrier in the 1950s, where Dan Devine built a national powerhouse in the 1960s, and where Al Onofrio pulled some unlikely upsets in the 1970s. Phil Bradley, Kellen Winslow, and Eric Wright—household names in college and in the pros—continued to build on that foundation in the early 1980s. Hard-working players such as Corby Jones and Brock Olivo gave the football program a new spark in the 1990s. The Tigers had little tradition in basketball until Norm Stewart returned to coach his alma mater in 1967. Big men Al Eberhard and John Brown first put the program on the map in the early 1970s; then Willie Smith electrified crowds at the Hearnes Center with his prolific scoring. Highly regarded recruits Steve Stipanovich and Jon Sundvold were the pillars of a team that won four straight Big Eight championships. Players such as Doug Smith, Anthony Peeler, and Derrick Chievous took the Tigers to the top of the national rankings while rewriting the school record books. From the football field to the basketball court and beyond, Tales from the Missouri Tigers is perfect for the avid Mizzou fan!

Download or read book Phog written by Scott Morrow Johnson and published by University of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Remembered in name but underappreciated in legacy, Forrest “Phog” Allen arguably influenced the game of basketball more than anyone else. In the first half of the twentieth century, Allen took basketball from a gentlemanly, indoor recreational pastime to the competitive game that would become a worldwide sport. Succeeding James Naismith as the University of Kansas’s basketball coach in 1907, Allen led the Jayhawks for thirty-nine seasons and holds the record for most wins at that school, with 590. He also helped create the NCAA tournament and brought basketball to the Olympics. Allen changed the way the game is played, coached, marketed, and presented. Scott Morrow Johnson reveals Allen as a master recruiter, a transformative coach, and a visionary basketball mind. Adolph Rupp, Dean Smith, Wilt Chamberlain, and many others benefited from Allen’s knowledge of and passion for the game. But Johnson also delves into Allen’s occasionally tumultuous relationships with Naismith, the NCAA, and University of Kansas administrators. Phog: The Most Influential Man in Basketball chronicles this complex man’s life, telling for the first time the full story of the man whose name is synonymous with Kansas basketball and with the game itself.

Book Synopsis Bleeding Kansas, Bleeding Missouri by : Jonathan Earle
Download or read book Bleeding Kansas, Bleeding Missouri written by Jonathan Earle and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2013-08-10 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before the first shot of the Civil War was fired at Fort Sumter, violence had already erupted along the Missouri-Kansas border—a recurring cycle of robbery, arson, torture, murder, and revenge. This multifaceted study brings together fifteen scholars to expand our understanding of this vitally important region, the violence that besieged it, and its overall impact on the Civil War. Bleeding Kansas, Bleeding Missouri blends political, military, social, and intellectual history to explain why the region’s divisiveness was so bitter and persisted for so long. Providing a more nuanced understanding of the conflict, it defines both what united and divided the men and women who lived there and how various political disagreements ultimately disintegrated into violence. By focusing on contested definitions of liberty, citizenship, and freedom, it also explores how civil societies break down and how they are reconstructed when the conflict ends. The contributors examine this key chapter in American history in all of its complexity. Essays on “Slavery and Politics in Territorial Kansas” examine how the border region was transformed by the conflict over the status of slavery in Kansas Territory and how the emerging conflict on the Kansas-Missouri border took on a larger national significance. Other essays focus on the transition to total warfare and examine the wartime experiences of the diverse people who populated the region in “Sectional Crisis and Civil War on the Western Border.” Final articles on “The Border Reconstructed and Remembered” explore the ways in which border residents rebuilt their society after the war and how they remembered it decades later. As this penetrating collection shows, only when Missourians and Kansans embraced a common vision for America—one based on shared agricultural practices, ideas about economic development, and racial equality—could citizens on both sides of the border reconcile.
