Though he is considered one of the most influential coaches in football history, Paul Brown's personal story is relatively unknown. A success at every level of the game--from high school to college, from establishing fledgling professional leagues to helping to define the modern day NFL--few know that Brown's prodigious academic background won him a Rhodes scholarship in 1930. What followed is football history, including victories for the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Cleveland Browns. This venerated Hall of Famer remains an important figure in the sport's history, making this biography an essential for any football fan.
