Coaching college football means shouldering immense responsibility. A coach is responsible for managing his staff, designing game plans, handling the media, working with the administration and satisfying the fans’ desire to win games at any cost. But more than anything, a head coach is responsible for developing the young men who take the field.
In Chasing Dreams: Living My Life One Yard at a Time (Triumph Books, September 2016), legendary football coach Jerry Kill, with the help of co-author Jim Bruton, explains how he’s managed to fulfill all of the responsibilities of his position throughout his career. By always putting the players first, he’s maintained a reputation for being more than just a coach who wins, but one who leads, teaches and cares. Kill’s coaching career spans more than three decades, and in that time he’s touched countless lives up until his sudden retirement in October 2015 due to health issues related to epilepsy, a condition that had caused four seizures on the sidelines during games. Stories from the book include:
Chasing Dreams is an inspiring story of a true American life. Coach Kill has been beloved and successful at every point of his career, and he’s done so while maintaining his commitment to his faith and his family. The insights and philosophies offered by Kill will inspire, educate and enlighten readers of all stripes.
