David Odom's new book, The End Is Not the Trophy, is a look at the former Wake Forest basketball coach's lifetime of coaching and sports--from his early days growing up in Goldsboro, North Carolina, through his high school and college years, and into his successful career as first a high school coach, then a college assistant, and finally a nationally renowned college head coach. Prior to Odom's arrival at Wake Forest in 1990, the university had never played in more than two straight NCAA tournaments. Under his guidance, he led Wake to two ACC titles and seven straight trips to NCAA post-season play, the seventh longest in the country. The End Is Not the Trophy looks at the people who have influenced him and answers the question, "Why coaching?" Odom talks about his stint in high school coaching and his progress through the ranks until he was named Wake Forest's head coach--one of America's premiere coaching positions. With humor and revealing candor, Odom shares his world of basketball at its highest level and discusses what the life of a basketball coach is really like. The End Is Not the Trophy is a guide for young or would-be coaches, a sports fan's delight, and a must for anyone interested in basketball and the life led by those involved in coaching the sport. "In discussing the coach's function in any sport, Odom makes a number of arresting observations: a coach who is not a teacher is not a good coach; a coach who relies only on computer printouts and other statistical data ignores the humanity of his players. Most intriguing of all, he claims not to read articles about himself or his team in the press, for he believes that sports reporters don't know as much about the game as he does." -- Publishers Weekly "Odom's maiden voyage into the literary world is a refreshing diversion... to its credit, The End is Not the Trophy is short on the personal and long on the philosophical." -- Greensboro News and Record "A must for any individual who would like to pursue a dream in the world of coaching... David is one of the brightest minds in college basketball who learned his craft at the high school level and has coached successfully for many years in the highly competitive world of ACC basketball. David Odom's philosophy is Awesome, baby, with a capital A." -- Dick Vitale, Sports Commentator "Coming up though the Wake Forest basketball system, Coach Odom taught me many things. Many of these had to do with basketball, yet many were valuable life lessons. The value of friendship, togetherness, and pride--among other things--helped each and every student-athlete grow and mature on and off the court." -- Tim Duncan, San Antonio Spurs

The theft of the Jules Rimet Trophy in 1966 is one of the most unusual stories in the history of football. The full story of what really happened has never before been told, and those parts that have been told have contained and perpetuated a number of errors. This volume sets out to put the record straight by telling the complete story. It is based on official FIFA and FA files, as well as information drawn from the archives of the German and Brazilian football authorities, police records, complementary newspaper reports, and most importantly, evidence gathered form those involved with the case itself. It presents a factual account not only of the parts that have become public knowledge, but also of the activities that went on away from the glare of publicity and which have never been told in detail before.

The Trophy Effect No matter how intelligent, capable, or successful you are, you may question your capabilities or self-worth regularly. You’re more likely to be concerned about falling short than you are to be inclined to anticipate success. That’s just how humans are wired. Author Michael A. Nitti offers a way to change that negative thought process. In The Trophy Effect, he explains the powerful, subconscious force that causes human beings to focus on their shortcomings (what’s wrong) rather than on the positive aspects of their lives (what’s possible). To break free of this dynamic, by stepping beyond your fears, Nitti walks you through a metaphorical journey of your mind, allowing you to not only see clearly the actual source of your self-doubt, but how to access your inherent passion and joy. Presenting a formula for freedom, happiness, and fulfillment, The Trophy Effect takes you on a spiritual experience of self-discovery, leaving you fully empowered to both override your reactive mind and take absolute control of your life forever.

Thirteen-year old Lizzie Hood and her next door neighbor Evie Verver are inseparable. They are best friends who swap bathing suits and field-hockey sticks, and share everything that's happened to them. Together they live in the shadow of Evie's glamorous older sister Dusty, who provides a window on the exotic, intoxicating possibilities of their own teenage horizons. To Lizzie, the Verver household, presided over by Evie's big-hearted father, is the world's most perfect place. And then, one afternoon, Evie disappears. The only clue: a maroon sedan Lizzie spotted driving past the two girls earlier in the day. As a rabid, giddy panic spreads through the Midwestern suburban community, everyone looks to Lizzie for answers. Was Evie unhappy, troubled, upset? Had she mentioned being followed? Would she have gotten into the car of a stranger? Lizzie takes up her own furtive pursuit of the truth, prowling nights through backyards, peering through windows, pushing herself to the dark center of Evie's world. Haunted by dreams of her lost friend and titillated by her own new power at the center of the disappearance, Lizzie uncovers secrets and lies that make her wonder if she knew her best friend at all.

In The Greek and Roman Trophy: From Battlefield Marker to Icon of Power, Kinnee presents the first monographic treatment of ancient trophies in sixty years. The study spans Archaic Greece through the Augustan Principate. Kinnee aims to create a holistic view of this complex monument-type by breaking down boundaries between the study of art history, philology, the history of warfare, and the anthropology of religion and magic. Ultimately, the kaleidoscopic picture that emerges is of an ad hoc anthropomorphic Greek talisman that gradually developed into a sophisticated, Augustan sculptural or architectural statement of power. The former, a product of the hoplite phalanx, disappeared from battlefields as the Macedonian cavalry grew in importance, shifting instead onto coins and into rhetoric, where it became a statement of military might. For their part, the Romans seem to have encountered the trophy as an icon on Syracusan coinage. Recognizing its value as a statement of territorial ownership, the Romans spent two centuries honing the trophy-concept into an empire-building tool, planted at key locations around the Mediterranean to assert Roman presence and dominance. This volume covers a ubiquitous but poorly understood phenomenon and will therefore be instructive to upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, and scholars in all fields of Classical Studies.

Legislators and educators have been working tirelessly to pursue answers for years. Experts have warned of dire consequences for America's economy, our standard of living, and even our freedom, if the remedy isn't found soon. They say the schools are failing, there are too many bad teachers, the schools need more money, they have too much money the list only gets longer. Meanwhile, Boomerang kids in their twenties and thirties are moving back home, employers can't find kids who are willing to work, and the military is worried that many potential recruits are too fat to fight. So far not one of the critics has examined the issue closely enough to offer a comprehensive solution...until now. The Trophy Generation puts all this and more together in a complete analysis of the dynamics of education and childrearing in the twenty-first century and offers real solutions to keep America the strongest and foremost nation of our time. Discover what you can do to change the future education for the future of America.
