Legendary UCLA basketball coach John Wooden left his stamp on college basketball, coaching the Bruins to 10 national championships and four undefeated seasons while inspiring generations with his “Pyramid Of Success” method of coaching.

Soon fans will have an actual stamp to remember him by.

The U.S. Postal Service announced Thursday that it will feature the late Wizard of Westwood’s image on a limited edition forever stamp beginning early next year.

“This stamp is a tribute to Coach Wooden’s remarkable and widespread impact, which extends far beyond UCLA and far beyond basketball,” UCLA Chancellor Gene Block said in a news release.
