| Time Warner's The New Gold Standard Book chronicles one of the most fabled teams in college football history: the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. No college football program has produced more national championships, more All-Americans and more Heisman Trophy winners than Notre Dame. The team faltered under the leadership of Tyrone Willingham, who was let go three years into his five-year contract. The book showcases the turn-around of the team after the start of new head coach Charlie Weis who took the struggling Irish and returned them to their rightful place among the elite of college football. Written by Tim Prister, whose extensive history with Notre Dame includes 20 years as editor of the Blue & Gold Illustrated. Hardcover, 272 pages. |
