review 1: Despite Bobby Knight's fantastic record in basketball, he failed to grab my attention with this book. I just couldn't get into it. I tried reading it at different times of day, thinking perhaps it was me or my mood, but I didn't connect. The glib subheadings in the chapters were meant to be attention grabbing but they sounded so cliche and made for the locker room that I didn't warm up to them.Others may find Knight's effort, inspirational, but I had to put it down.
review 2: I read this because I thought title intriguing and wanted to see what coach knight had to say. It is an easy read full of coach's pithy comments and sayings. Not a particularly well written, it reads more like a a bunch of talks given at a coaching clinic. In spite of the title the book
... more has some practical advice and common sense which is positive. And that is the coach's point: what may appear to be negative can actually have positive affects. I probably would not have read this except for someone giving it to me. less
