Happy Birthday Coach

Posted by Team UT on October 14th, 2008   UnCommon News

Happy Birthday to Coach Wooden who turns 98 today. Coach is well known for winning 10 NCAA Championships at UCLA. What many people don’t know about Coach was that he was also a 3-time All-American guard at Purdue University, and was named College Basketball Player of the Year in 1932 after helping to lead Purdue to the NCAA Championship.

One of the quotes we keep on the wall in the office from Coach is:
Its What You Learn After You Know It All That Counts
“When success comes your way, you must work even harder and avoid the great temptation of believing that previous achievements will occur in the future without even greater effort than was required in the past. You must never become satisfied, never content that what you know is all you need to know.”
