Remember This Titan: The Bill Yoast Story

This morning I finished reading "Remember this Titan: the Bill Yoast Story" as told to Steve Sullivan. Yoast was one of the coaches immortalized in the movie (which I haven't yet seen) called "Remember the Titans", about a high school football team in 1971 at a new integrated high school that had an undefeated season, and supposedly pulled the racially split town together. While I enjoyed the book, it was very funny, I was a little disappointed that he didn't discuss the team he coached that year some more. He barely mentioned football at all. Still, he seems like a great guy, the kind you wouldn't mind having as a dad or grandfather.
