- [Jane] He was an Indiana
high school champion

00:00:09.040 --> 00:00:13.277
at Martinsville in 1927, a three
time All-America at Purdue,

00:00:13.277 --> 00:00:16.336
a lieutenant in the US
Navy during World War II,

00:00:16.336 --> 00:00:19.784
and then John Wooden
really became a success.

00:00:19.784 --> 00:00:23.213
As the coach of the UCLA
Bruins for 27 years,

00:00:23.213 --> 00:00:25.050
Wooden established records

00:00:25.050 --> 00:00:27.100
that will likely never be matched.

00:00:27.100 --> 00:00:31.724
His teams won 10 NCAA
championships, seven consecutively.

00:00:31.724 --> 00:00:36.325
He had four undefeated seasons
and won 88 games in a row.

00:00:36.325 --> 00:00:38.630
He's in the basketball hall of fame

00:00:38.630 --> 00:00:40.630
as both a player and a coach

00:00:40.630 --> 00:00:43.403
and his pyramid of success
is the most famous pyramid

00:00:43.403 --> 00:00:44.983
since the Pharaoh's.

00:00:44.983 --> 00:00:47.505
He received the Presidential
Medal of Freedom.

00:00:47.505 --> 00:00:49.595
But above all, John Wooden was simply

00:00:49.595 --> 00:00:51.690
a teacher from Indiana.

00:00:51.690 --> 00:00:53.090
