The day after a season-ending bowl game loss Ohio State Coach Ed Hart is told he has one year to win or be fired. With over twenty years of college football coaching experience, Jay Paterno takes you inside the pressure cooker of big-time college football unlike anyone else. Coach Hart must navigate a minefield of issues in academics, recruiting, concussions, sex, race, gambling, agents and more. Almost every day he is presented with decisions that challenge him to weigh his integrity versus the demands of a win-at-all-cost profession.

A memorial to one of the greatest coaches in college football history written by the man who knew him better than anyone: his oldest son and coaching protege This biography of Joe Paterno by his son Jay is an honest and touching look at the life and legacy of a beloved coaching legend. Jay Paterno paints a full picture of his father's life and career as well as documenting that almost none of the horrific crimes that came to light in 2012 took place at Penn State. Jay Paterno clear-headedly confronts the events that happened with cool facts and with passion, demonstrating that this was just one more case of an innocent man convicted by the media for a crime in which he had no part. Noting that the scandal itself was but a short moment in Joe Paterno's life and legacy, the book focuses on Paterno's greatness as a father and grandfather, his actions as a miraculous coach to his players, and his skillful dealings with his assistant coaches. Available in paperback for the first time, this updated edition provides readers Jay Paterno's perspective on the latest developments at Penn State.
