“John Wooden taught us that doing the best you are capable of is victory enough.”
-Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (1947- )

John Wooden, who coached UCLA’s championship basketball team for so many years, is one of the best-loved sports figures out there. What made him such a great coach is not only his love of the game, but his love of his players, and his love of life. John Wooden is a philosopher. He is a sage. We would all do well to listen to what he has to say!
