Ramsay Clark looks back at ten seasons coaching basketball at the Boys Club of Memphis in this autobiography that shines a spotlight on his strong bond with a star player, Cornelius Sanders. In 1985, the team he coached took home the first city championship won by a boys club team. Most people thought their team was the least likely to win. He also helped Cornelius find a job, taking him to a prominent country club where the chef offered him a position on the spot. Kudos to Cornelius for earning the chef's confidence by looking him in the eyes like a man and commanding respect with his exceptional communication skills. Later, the two of them went together to the Million Man Walk in Washington, D.C. in the summer of 1997, with Ramsay-who is white-causing quite a stir with his attendance! The truth is that he thought he was going to a Promise Keepers rally, rather than a civil rights gathering for Black men! Throughout this book, the author observes that the best coaches think about more than wins and losses. Being a good coach is really all about investing in people.
