5 out of 5 stars The "real" Hoosiers Story   April 4, 2002
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Having watched the movie "Hoosiers" a number of times, I was quite pleasantly surprised by this powerful account of the real-to-life coach of the Milan Indians. . .The movie certainly missed the point of what actually happened to the young man who crafted one of basketball's most memorable legends. . .

From the joy of the victory with Milan to the pain of losing his only son to drugs, the Marvin Wood story is a touching account of an educator who knew who to inspire. . .

If you like basketball and you have ever rooted for the underdog you will love this book. . .
