Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it take to be a student-athlete at Notre Dame? Sports fans may have an idea of what it takes to play football at a Division I college: the training, the discipline, the pain, the motivation. But most of us have no idea what it takes to be a successful student-athlete at a top academic institution such as Notre Dame. In “The Men We Became: More Echoes From the End Zone,” the follow up to Lisa Kelly’s first book “Echoes From the End Zone: The Men We Became;” Lisa details what it takes to be a successful student-athlete at Notre Dame: the dedication, determination and drive that Our Lady’s student-athletes need to find success both on and off the field. She tells the stories of another group of Notre Dame football players including: • The lessons they learned in college, and how those lessons changed their lives via the Notre Dame Value Stream • Their years at Notre Dame • The end of their football careers • The new careers and dreams they followed after football "The profiles of the Notre Dame men presented in this book touch on the significant impact the University played in the shaping of these individuals after they left . Lisa does a masterful job of extracting the essence of what make Notre Dame men special. I am proud of the legacy I was fortunate enough to be a part of and grateful to Lisa for doing such a remarkable job in telling our stories.” ~Reggie Brooks “The men featured in this book are special individuals and represent all that is great about Notre Dame. These men are significant and they have strived each day to make an impact and difference in all things that they touch. They were - and as far as I’m concerned remain - Notre Dame student-athletes and I’m proud to have been a part of their lives. Lisa, thank you for your work and sharing with the Notre Dame Family what you so appropriately have named, “The Men We Became: More Echoes From the End Zone.” ~ Lou Holtz

Book Synopsis Texas Longhorns Football History A to Z by : Richard Pennington
Download or read book Texas Longhorns Football History A to Z written by Richard Pennington and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The game may be the same in other states, but football seems to mean more in Texas. Beyond any doubt, one school in the Lone Star State has the richest football history and the most glorious tradition - the University of Texas. More than 800 victories, four national championships (1963, 1969, 1970, and 2005), and two Heisman Trophy winners (Earl Campbell and Ricky Williams) indicate just what a pigskin powerhouse the Longhorns are. Richard Pennington conducted exhaustive research in writing Texas Longhorns Football History A to Z. This book, which is sure to delight orangebloods in Texas and beyond, traces the development of the school's football program from 1893 through 2006. With a deft hand, Pennington recounts the highs and lows the Horns have experienced in those years. He writes about the major figures in UT football history - Clyde Littlefield, Dana X. Bible, Bobby Layne, Darrell Royal, DeLoss Dodds, Vince Young, and others - but he also shines a light on obscure but interesting people. A prime example is Marion Ford, one of UT's first black undergraduate students. Ford volunteered to join a woeful (1-9) team in 1956 but was politely turned down. Fourteen years would pass before Texas integrated its football program. As the title indicates, Texas Longhorns Football History A to Z is full of facts and figures, anecdotes and trivia, all-decade teams and archival information. Respectful of all but beholden to none, Pennington has written a book that engages hard-core fans as well as those wondering where football legitimately fits in any institution of higher learning. That issue certainly pertains at the University of Texas, which has 450,000 living alumni, an athletic budget topping $100 million, and a newly expanded stadium that seats 90,000-plus.

Book Synopsis Battle of the Brazos by : T. G. Webb
Download or read book Battle of the Brazos written by T. G. Webb and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-30 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During halftime of the October 30, 1926, football game between Baylor University and the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas, a massive riot erupted between the two student bodies that resulted in the death of Texas A&M senior cadet Charles Sessums. Though various newspaper articles have chronicled this infamous “cold case” over the last ninety years, none has placed the riot in its proper context, nor has any official determination ever identified the person responsible for Sessums’s death. T. G. Webb has pored over related historic documents, including contemporary newspaper accounts, records in the library archives of both universities, personal correspondence of the victim’s family, and the original report of the Pinkerton detective hired by Texas A&M to investigate the incident. In Battle of the Brazos, Webb examines and explains the riot, its origins, and its aftermath, untangling many enduring myths that grew up around the event over the years to establish the definitive record. He allows readers to witness the heart-breaking arrival of Cadet Sessums’s parents at the Waco train station as they came to receive the body of their deceased son, and he places readers amid the swirl of charges, recriminations, and allegations that clouded the atmosphere at both Texas A&M and Baylor. Most significantly, Webb provides previously unpublished indications of a cover-up designed to shield the killer’s identity from public knowledge. This “historical whodunit” is a must-read for sports fans and historians, devotees of “leather-helmet” football, local history buffs, and Texas football enthusiasts alike.
