HERE'S A DEFINITE CLASSIC TO CONSIDER!   By his very own hand! you just have to get it (and a few copies for all your friends too) (more than just a trophy)

 

Principles of Football
by John W. Heisman

 

  Book Description
Time to get back to football`s basics. In an age of fruity sports drinks, Armani-ed agents, and the x`s and o`s taught online, the bedrock simplicity and timeless truths of John Heisman`s Principles of Football will knock the wind out of you like a four-man tackle deep behind the line of scrimmage. Available for the first time since the 1920s, this classic book (which includes over 40 of Heisman`s game plays) is perfect for every young player and coach alike, as well as lovers of the game.

Heisman`s coaching style and philosophy are unparalleled by the likes of Vince Lombardi, Bear Bryant, Mike Ditka, Tom Landry, Chuck Noll, and others and his innovations influence the game to this day: he invented of the Heisman shift (forerunner to the T formation) and legalized the forward pass, for example. But the greatest testimony to his savvy and sportsmanship are in his own words, his diltillation of what makes the games and its players great.

The no-loss attitude that plays in Heisman`s locker room will no doubt win in the school room and the board room. Heisman articulately maps out the benefits of the game in terms of sportmanship, gentlemanly skilles, self-control, will power, and clear thinking, along the way demonstrating his clear love for the his coaches and players alike. Principles of football includes Heisman`s time-tested, timeless tips on strategy, tactics, drills, nutrition, training, injury, and, foremost, how to play the `mental game.` 

Here are his basic rules:

  • ALWAYS PLAY WITH YOUR HEAD
  • ALWAYS RUN YOUR FASTEST
  • ALWAYS TACKLE LOW
  • ALWAYS BE WHERE THE BALL IS
  • ALWAYS WIN THE GAME
  • NEVER GET EXCITED
  • NEVER GIVE UP
  • NEVER PLAY LESS THAN YOUR VERY HARDEST
  • NEVER GET ON THE FIELD WITHOUT YOUR BRAIN
  • NEVER FORGET A FOOTBALL PLAYER MAY BE A GENTLEMAN
  • and another 364 pages packed with information!

    John William Heisman  born Oct. 23, 1869, Cleveland  - died Oct. 3, 1936, New York City


    U.S. collegiate football coach for 36 years and one of the greatest innovators of the game. He was responsible for legalizing the forward pass in 1906, and he originated the centre snap and the  hike, or . hep,. count signals of the quarterback in starting play. He was also the first coach to use the hidden ball play (later outlawed), the quarterback as safety on defense, the double pass, use of interference on end runs, the spin buck, and the Heisman shift. He also promoted the division of game halves into quarters.

    Heisman played tackle for Brown University (Providence) and centre, tackle, and end for the University of Pennsylvania, He coached at Oberlin (Ohio) College  at Auburn (Ala.) University at Clemson (S.C.) University  at Georgia Institute of Technology  Washington and Jefferson College  and Rice University  During his career teams coached by him won 185 games, lost 68, and tied 18.
