Legendary coach passes away

Posted June 4th, 2010 in Amazing People, Spirtuality & Christianity by aaron

John Wooden passed away earlier today at the age of 99. He was one of the best college basketball coaches in history. Not only did he produce champions on the court, he made his players great character people off the court. Wooden leaves a legacy of success as a basketball coach and as a man who shaped the lives of many great individuals.

Here’s a quote that I feel defined how he lived his life:
Material possessions, winning scores, and great reputations are meaningless in the eyes of the Lord, because He knows what we really are and that is all that matters. – John Wooden

RIP John Wooden. You will be deeply missed
