Includes Foreword by Joe Paterno, Foreword by Ernie Accorsi, as well as Acknowledgments and Introduction.

This book offers much more than just another look at life inside one of the premier programs in college football. It distills the discipline, confidence, and integrity of the Pittmans, Paterno, and Penn State football into a practical primer for anyone looking to incorporate their proven principles into his or her life and career. Joseph Vincent Paterno (December 21, 1926 - January 22, 2012), sometimes referred to as JoePa, was an American college football player, athletic director, and coach. He was the head coach of the Penn State Nittany Lions from 1966 to 2011. With 409 victories, Paterno is the most victorious coach in NCAA FBS history. He recorded his 409th victory on October 29, 2011. Paterno attended Brown University, where he played football both ways as the quarterback and a cornerback. He was hired in 1950 as an assistant football coach at Penn State. He was persuaded to do this by his college coach Rip Engle. In 1966, Paterno was named as Engle's successor. He soon coached the team to two undefeated regular seasons in 1968 and 1969. The team won two national championshipsâ"in 1982 and 1986. Charles Vernon Pittman (born January 22, 1948 in Baltimore, Maryland) is a former professional American football player. He was an All-American halfback at Penn State and played in the NFL for the St. Louis Cardinals and the Baltimore Colts. Pittman was a member of Joe Paterno's first recruiting class as head coach. A crafty, oversized running back on defensive-minded teams, he rushed for 2,236 yards and 30 touchdowns in his career with the Nittany Lions. In his junior and senior seasons, Penn State went 22-0, with wins over Kansas and Missouri in the 1969 and 1970 Orange Bowls. Pittman led the Nittany Lions in rushing in 1969 with 706 yards and 10 touchdowns on 149 carries, caught 10 passes for 127 yards and topped the team in scoring with 66 points. He was named All-American following the 1969 season and was selected by the St. Louis Cardinals in the third round of the 1970 NFL Draft (#58 overall). Conversely, Pittman's son Tony Pittman starred as an undersized defensive back on the high-powered offensive 1994 Penn State Nittany Lions football team. Father and son were both starters for the Nittany Lions. Charlie Pittman never lost a game he started in high school and neither he nor Tony ever lost a game they started at Penn State. Their combined college records are 45-0-1. In the sports world, that is almost a miraculous number. In elite college football, there is no father-son tandem better at their game, record-wise, than the Pittmans. Both father Charlie and son Tony Pittman were also academic all-Americans while attending and playing football for Penn State. Penn State football icon Joe Paterno has presided over five undefeated seasons in his storied career as a head coach. Charlie and Tony Pittman played in three of those seasons. The Pittmans are the only undefeated father and son starters in the history of the Nittany Lions' program and their experiences are brought to life in their compelling new memoir Playing for Paterno. Charlie Pittman's teamsâ"unbeaten in 30 gamesâ"laid the foundation and established the legacy for Penn State's winning ways; they are the reason Penn State became a powerhouse. Tony's 1994 team was considered by many to be one of the best offensive teams in college football history. Playing for Paterno takes the reader inside the Blue and White world of Penn State football and gives insight into the profound impact Paterno's program has had on young hearts and minds. The reader sees through the eyes of Charlie Pittman, a poor, black Baltimore kid who was transported to the alien, all-white world of Happy Valley in the 1960s and Tony Pittman, a child of privilege who spurned Harvard and Yale for big time football at Penn State in the 1990s. But the book offers much more than just life inside one of the premier programs in college football. It takes the discipline, confidence, and integrity of the Pittmans, Paterno and Penn State football and translates them into practical primer for readers who want to apply these principles to their own lives and careers.…
