John Wooden, Legendary Basketball Coach

John Wooden recently turned 98 years old, and still regularly attents UCLA Basketball games. I am not a Basketball fan by any means. Why would I draw him? I have a lot of respect for someone like Coach Wooden. His coaching skills have helped countless students to not only become better players, but better people as well. Many of the things he learned growing up, such as his father's "Seven Point Creed" were passed on to his players, instilling in them the skills they would need to become better citizens. Whether or not you like Basketball, John Wooden is a man to be admired.
