If you haven't read the book "How Luck Can You Be" , I would highly recommend it. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and be overall inspired. Great job by Buster Olney.
Coach Meyer isn't a basketball coach. He is an educator - teaching his players and others about character, courage, and compassion. He starts with boys and builds men who have the tools to make everything and everyone around them better. He just happens to use basketball to do it.
Scott from texas you are an idiot. Obviously you never played sports and if you did you never understood the meaning. Sports teach you how to deal with real life situations. Sport teaches kids how to handle adversity, how to rise up to the challenge, and much more. From what I see Don Meyer has done that and much more. Don Meyer and many other coaches have changed more kids lives than any of these engineers you are talking about.
pretty sure a job doesnt teach you about competition. pretty sure a job doesnt teach you hand eye coordination. pretty sure you can have a job AND play sports. don't be mad at sports players because your too fat to get off the couch.

What a shame. Consider all this human effort going down the drain pursuing a meaningless activity like basketball. Consider all the waste in gas and time travelling, too. Then throw in the near-death experience and all the cost of that. When will this nation grow up? Other nations are making engineers and these idiots are spinning their wheels with sports.
I agree with Scott. Colleges go MAD focusing on sports. Its a stupid sports culture. Sure this man's story of survival is inspiring and amazing but really - effort needs to be spent elsewhere. If you want eveyrone to play sports just have the kids join a PE class. Anything beyond that is a waste.

Don Meyer is a first class person and coach. I'll never forgive Steve Flatt for the way he handled that whole situation at Lipscomb.
