Title: Overtime Pdf Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan Wolverines at the Crossroads of College Football
For the past year, John U. Bacon has received unprecedented access to Jim Harbaugh's University of Michigan football team: coaches, players, and staffers, in closed-door meetings, locker rooms, meals, and classes. Overtime captures this storied program at the crossroads, as the sport's winningest team battles to reclaim its former glory. But what if the price of success today comes at the cost of your soul? Do you pay it, or compete without compromising?
Overtime delivers a riveting and revealing insider's account of the Harbaugh era, a deeply reported human portrait of a big-time college football program.
In the spirit of HBO's Hardknocks, Overtime follows the Wolverine coaches, players, and staffers through the 2018 season, including Harbaugh, offensive stars Shea Patterson and Karan Higdon, NFL-ready defensive standouts Rashan Gary, Devin Bush Jr., and Chase Winovich, second-stringers striving to find their place on the team, and their parents' reactions to it all. Bacon met with them every week during a season that saw the Wolverines ride a 10-game winning streak to number four in the nation, then take a beating at the hands of arch-rival Ohio State, led by controversial coach Urban Meyer, Harbaugh's foil. Overtime also previews the crucial 2019 campaign ahead.
Above all, this is a human story. In Overtime, we not only discover what these public figures are like behind the scenes, we learn what the experience means to them as they go through it - the trials, the triumphs, and the unexpected answers to a central question: Is it worth it?
From the "poet laureate of Michigan football" (according to New York Times'Joe Drape), and one of the keenest observers of college football, Overtime offers a window into a legendary program and the sport itself that only John U. Bacon could deliver.
A Must-Read for College Football Fans To the Maize and Blue faithful, Michigan Football isn't just about winning and losing. It's about character and integrity. Those Who Stay Will Be Champions... that doesn't just mean in sports. It means in life. That's what most college football fans don't understand and that's why this book is a must-read. Using the framework of Michigan football, Bacon explores how Harbaugh not only builds the team to be competitive but also builds them to be good people - how one program tries to achieve all levels of success THE RIGHT WAY. For those who love Michigan, you'll appreciate the inside look and the return to the values of old school Michigan football. For those who just love football, you'll see what it takes to care about more than just wins and losses.Awesome book for anyone who enjoys football! Fantastic, literately could not put it down!
