✦ Synopsis

This is the story of football as told by Amos Alonzo Stagg, one of the innovators in the development of college football. Stagg served as head football coach at University of Chicago from 1892 to 1932. During his tenure, he compiled a record of 242-112-27 and led the Maroons to seven Big Ten Conference championships. Among the innovations credited to Stagg are the tackling dummy, the huddle, the reverse and man in motion plays, the lateral pass, uniform numbers, and awarding varsity letters.;Pigskin -- Football comes to college -- Our ancestory, rugby -- Five yards to gain -- Dirty work -- Playing end for Yale -- Abracadabra -- Go West, young man -- Deep-dish football -- Adventures at Chicago -- Heroes and goats -- I'd die for dear old Rutgers -- A coach's creed -- Galloping ghosts.
