Pete Newell is considered one of the finest basketball minds in the
sport's history. His death in 2008 spawned tributes from around the
country, including legendary UCLA coach John Wooden and Bob Knight,
who considered Newell his mentor. Newell, Knight, and Dean Smith
are the only men to coach championships at the Olympics, the
National Collegiate Athletic Association, and the National
Invitational Tournament (NIT), and of the three, only Newell won
the NIT at a time when it was considered the nation's most
prestigious tournament. He had a fiercely competitive rivalry with
Wooden and won his last eight meetings against Wooden's UCLA teams
before retiring in 1960. Although he retired for health reasons, he
continued to teach the game, notably at the famed Big Man's Camp,
for the rest of his life. Based on hundreds of interviews of
veterans of the game, "A Good Man" is Bruce Jenkins's complete
biography of Pete Newell.
