Lessons from Bo: Schembechler’s ideal quarterback was Jim Harbaugh

Last week in my mid-sized town in Northwest Indiana, in front of a business I stumbled across a huge box that had the words “FREE BOOKS” written on it. The avid reader that I am had to take a look. Among the gems left to rot outside before a rainstorm was the 1989 book ‘BO’ by Bo Schembechler and Mitch Albom. I saved this book from its demise.

Unsurprisingly, ‘BO’ is a very good read with plenty of great lessons for anyone who loves the game of football.

One of the chapters is entitled ‘Quarterbacks’.

In this chapter Bo dives in to what attributes a successful quarterback has.
