If you're looking for a good winter football read, check out the book Carlisle vs. Army - Jim Thorpe, Dwight Eisenhower, Pop Warner and the forgotten story of football's greatest battle. I'm about half way through it now, and its very good. You'll learn all kinds of football (& US) history you didn't know - like the first football fields were lined in a checkerboard pattern!

Thanks, sounds like a good one. I'll pick one up.

Thanks for sharing!

Another good and fast read, about the recruiting process is: "The Next Level" by Joe Hornback. I think it should be mandatory reading for every high school football player and their parents. It answers every question you have about the recruiting process and takes you from your freshman year of high school all the way threw your singing day. Every high school coach should have a copy.
