Just when USC football was in the midst of a horrific slump, when skeptics began to say the scholarship limits had conspired to make it impossible to recapture its old glory, Coach Pete Carroll arrived to transform and invigorate the program with his own bristling energy and style. He quickly re-established the Trojans not only as the dominant college football team in the Pac-10, but as the pre-eminent program in the country, and the most entertaining team in the sport. In the past seven years, Carroll has captured two National Championships, made an NCAA-record seven BCS bowl appearances, and produced three Heisman Trophy winners and more than 30 NFL draft picks, including seven first-rounders. For the first time ever, author Steve Bisheff has been given exclusive access to coaches and players, their meetings, practices and locker room and one-on-one interviews with Coach Carroll himself. "Always Compete "is both a revealing look at the tactics and personality of one of college football's best coaches and a thrilling chronicle of the 2008 Trojan's quest for another cham - pionship, culminating in their victory over Penn State in the Rose Bowl. AnnotationSteve Bisheff is a Los Angeles native and a USC graduate who has been covering the USC football team for his entire career. Those credentials were good enough to get Bisheff an all-access pass from Coach Pete Carroll to cover the Trojans' 2008 season from every possible angle. From the first spring practice to the team's thrashing of Penn State in the Rose Bowl, Bisheff reveals never-before-seen details about the premier program in college football, focusing particularly on Carroll's leadership and mentoring skills.
