Book excerpt: This is the story of Duffy Daugherty, arguably the most famous figure in the storied history of Michigan State University football. Daugherty's nineteen-year tenure at MSU was marked by great success. With his zany wit putting him in demand as a public speaker, Daugherty became so well known for his winning teams and quotable comments that he adorned the cover of the October 8, 1956, issue of Time magazine. Daugherty was a major figure in bringing African American athletes into the mainstream of college sports. From his arrival at MSU, he worked to field integrated teams. MSU memorialized Daugherty by naming the football team's practice facility the Duffy Daugherty Football Building in his honor.
