PROVO — The true measure of a man is how his life is reflected in deeds, how he traverses adversity and how his image is created, cast and stored in the minds of those who’ve crossed his path. If that’s the standard, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid easily makes the Mankind Hall of Fame.

The often embattled but enormously talented NFL receiver Terrell Owens told The Sporting News that Reid was the best coach he ever had.

To Owens, Reid was a mentor, leader and builder. He was a boss and a friend.
