Unsolicited!

Posted on September 25, 2014September 25, 2014 by Steve Davis

I don’t ask friends how they like the book. I figure if they do, they will tell me, and if they don’t like it, well I don’t want to put them in an uncomfortable position. So when I got the below unsolicited email yesterday, from a friend and former co-worker (who I haven’t talked to in quite a while) … well you can imagine how it made my day and Bill’s too! I need to give Jon a call:

Steve,

Got the chance to read your book a couple of weeks ago while on vacation. Loved it! However, I couldn’t stop thinking about the amount of work that you had to do to get this project completed and published. Wow! Hope sales are going well. I have been spreading the word!

Jon

About the Authors

Bill Myles has lived a fascinating life in athletics, from segregated Kansas City and Negro Leagues Baseball, to an up and coming high school coach, and then an insider in the country’s most powerful College Football programs. Bill coached under the giants at Nebraska and Ohio State—Bob Devaney, Tom Osborne, Woody Hayes, and Earle Bruce. With a career record of 170 wins, 67 losses, 7 ties, and 8 Big Eight/Big Ten Championships, Bill coached in 14 college bowl games including the Rose, Sugar, Cotton, Orange, Fiesta and Gator Bowls. Bill then served 22 years as Associate AD at Ohio State, in the biggest college athletic department in the country.

Steve Davis is a lifelong Buckeye Fan and a 1973 graduate of The Ohio State University. His first Ohio Stadium experience was the 1969 OSU win over Purdue, which propelled the Buckeyes to a National Championship. Davis was too small (and too slow!) to play for the Buckeyes, instead graduating from the OSU College of Agriculture Honors Program.
