Undertaker's Son is a terrific read, and a wonderful book to add to any collection." ---Donald J. Trump "Digger was an outstanding basketball coach who cared greatly about both the game and his players. However, beyond that he is an extremely intelligent guy whose experiences with life and people go way beyond the dimensions of the basketball court. This in itself makes his book a great read for people in all walks of life." -Bob Knight, Head Men's Basketball Coach, Texas Tech University "Sound advice delivered in an entertaining context from a high-profile personality who doesn't take himself too seriously."-Booklist "Digger Phelps' life story inspires us to harness the best within ourselves and to help others do the same.

Whether you want to make the most of your life, your team or your community, Digger's game plan can tip the balance decisively in your favor." --Thurgood Marshall, Jr."Digger always has something to say and is worth listening to or even reading with pleasure." --(Rev.) Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C., President Emeritus, University of Notre Dame "Who better to write a game plan for life than Digger Phelps? Already a successful basketball coach and commentator, Digger takes on important issues like education with the combination of brains and bravado that has served him well. Digger's many passions are reflected in this book as he goes beyond x's and o's to thoughtful solutions-a winning strategy." ---Hannah Storm
