About this episode
In the early 1990s, Bill Walsh returned to coaching, leaving the NFL ranks to take the top job at Stanford University. Author Lowell Cohn followed Walsh through his first season at the helm at Stanford, and produced a tremendous book as a result.
"Rough Magic: Bill Walsh's Return to Stanford Football" explores Walsh's personality, his struggles with his own greatness, and his relationship to other coaches in a sprawling, incisive examination of one of the best football coaches ever. Does it belong in our football canon? Listen in to find out.
