The Jayhawks success in 2007-2008 has been credited to total team effort and the inspiring leadership of head coach Bill Self. During his relatively short head coaching career, Self has established himself as one of college basketball's best by leading Oral Roberts to new frontiers, guiding Tulsa to its best season in school history, turning Illinois into a Big Ten powerhouse and now taking Kansas from a perennially great program to the best in the nation.

Self tells how he achieved his dream of not only becoming a head coach, but also how he realized the pinnacle - leading the Jayhawks to a national title. He shares minute-by-minute details of the contest that sent KU to the national title game…". Signed by Bill Self. First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover.
