Historia
The storybook football season for the LSU Tigers in 2019 was the stuff of legend: a team with recently unmet expectations became the undefeated national champion with a Heisman trophy-winning transfer quarterback under the leadership of a coach whose previous coaching stops had been disappointments. Yet that coach, Ed Orgeron, had turned everything around. He flipped the script, transforming a program that lately had not reached its potential into a team of unprecedented dominance.

A Good Biography, But Not Inspirational...
Revisado: 10-24-21
While the telling of Coach O's football life story was interesting, it failed to produce a message for the reader. Coach had a nice career, built mostly on networking and being in the right place at the right time. While it doesn't seem like he was ever anyone's first choice for Coach at any of his tenures, his work ethic allowed him to make the most of his opportunities. The second half of the book is basically an homage to Joe Burrow, and Coach O all but says the national championship happened around him, not in any way because of him. That makes it easy to see why it was easy for LSU to part ways with him. Very little mention of any off-field life except for a brief mention of drinking in his younger days. Growing up an athlete and around coaches of all sports at all levels, I'm not sensitive to language at all. And while not horrible, the language used in this book was such that Thomas Nelson Publishing shouldn't have been within a hundred miles of it.
Overall enjoyable, if hollow.
