It was brought out his coaching of the "Pyramid of Success."
Wonder why the coaches of today, don't build on that?
Too old fashion?
Players might not relate to all or some of that?
Coach Wooden was from my homestate of Indiana, born and raised in Martinville, Indiana.
Was educated in the University, that I attended, Purdue University, led them to the college championship was it was back than in the 30's.
Played hard as a player, and taught players to play hard and good basic basketball as a coach.
Even some not playing basketball can get something out the "Pyramid of Success".
