In words and pictures, we celebrate a century of grace and greatness as we say good-bye -- but never farewell -- to Coach John Robert Wooden. October 14, 1910 - June 4, 2010 http://www.magazine.ucla.edu/features/coach/
the NCAA had no post-season tourney when Wooden played at Purdue so that was no real championship only "mythical". And at UCLA he never won any titles until his 17th season after the notorious jewish booster Sam Gilbert began to purchase the elite prepsters from the East coast such as Walt Hazzard and Lew Alcindor. The media helped to cover up the shenanigans at UCLA until the NCAA forced Wooden to leave after the 1974-75 season.
He's a great man. A great loss from UCLA.

I am happy he wrote books, I feel like his life, values, and words are invaluable to readers. Absolutely one of my role models.

I met him. I am a Bruin. I have only known one man as
extraordinary. Captain Harry E. Smith. My pop. There
are so many reasons to doubt life - to doubt each other.
Coach Wooden, there was never a doubt. Thank you -
and forever, as benign as it may sound, go Bruins.
