Oh, and did I mention, all of this in a book about football! "I'll Tell You When You're Good" - just read it - you'll thank yourself when you're done!! ~ Dru Robins Stains The book was fun, I laughed a lot. It was intense, I agonized over a number of David's thoughts and comments. It was enlightening, I learned a lot about the intricacies of college football. The last chapter was really tough. But, mostly, through this book and through his book signings, I got to know David Walker, whom I like and respect very much. ~ Bob Arnold I was uplifted by David's story and his ultimate victory in the face of unconscionable (dare I say it?) malevolence. Not only did I find the book to be a great read, but I found it comforting - even healing - to my soul. David has the gift of eloquence of the written word and conveyed his story in a manner that anyone would find enjoyable. Whether or not you are a sports fan, you will find his tale to be entertaining, enlightening and uplifting. ~ Debbie Roberts David Walker's revelations are stunning, jaw dropping and historically worthy.

My high school coach is a legend and I used his many teachings in order to survive my situation with college football. My hope is that I represented all the great teams and wonderful teammates in the manner they deserve.
