Blocking for the Gipper, Lawrence "Buck" Shaw was one of Knute
Rockne's star players at Notre Dame during 1919 through 1921.
However, it was his nearly four decades of college and pro coaching
that earned him esteem. Viewed as a "player's coach," Shaw was
talented at relating to young men and molding them into a winning
team. His college teams won two Sugar bowls. Shaw's successful
coaching with the San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles also
played an integral role in helping the NFL grow into a
billion-dollar business. A contemporary of Vince Lombardi, Shaw's
Eagles won the NFL championship in the pre-Super Bowl era. A member
of the College Football Hall of Fame, Shaw never received serious
consideration for enshrinement at Canton for his professional
career. This complete biography tells the colorful story of Shaw's
college and pro years, shedding light on Shaw's over-looked
achievements in the professional ranks, which saw him earn a higher
winning percentage a half-dozen Hall of Fame coaches.
