"Having coached in New Jersey on the scholastic level, I have the utmost respect for a coach that has had big-time success in that area. Certainly, Bill represents that premise. Anybody who has touched so many lives and been as effective as Bill is certainly a winner in my eyes."
-- Dick Vitale, ESPN
"As a young coach in the early 1970s, my goal was to compete with Bill, and he was the standard I set for myself and my teams at Saint Anthony's. He set a very high standard for his coaching peers to strive for, and I am obliged to say he has been a personal friend as well as a mentor to me for the last thirty years."
--Bob Hurley, Sr., Head Coach, St. Anthony's High School (Jersey City, NJ), from the foreword
"This book will be an immeasurable asset to the basketball world and could serve as a strong foundation to build your own personal coaching philosophy on."
