Throwing the flag on long-lost football “wisdom” from legends like Rockne, Heisman, and Camp
Your old Uncle Frank likes to say that football ain’t what it used to be; how today’s players, coaches, and analysts know NOTHING compared to legends of the past. Oh, yeah? Well, here’s a book of ancient nuggets of football wisdom hilariously taken apart to show that all the golden advice and knowledge from years past is, well, from a lot of years past. And it hasn’t aged too well. Ask the Old Football Coach takes the old football coach at his word . . . and then offers a few words in response! Illustrated with vintage football photography.
- Quick-hitting spreads and single-page entries offer points of entry everywhere in the book
- Humorous alternative to the advanced statistics and fantasy football analytics
- With nearly 200 vintage and whacky football photographs
