Opis

Growing up in the rough streets of Newark, New Jersey wasn't easy. Amir was raised by a single mother and determined to someday make it out of Newark. A star athlete at Malcolm X Shabazz high school in football, basketball and track, Amir knew that sports would be his ticket out. As a stand out football player Amir received a full athletic scholarship to the University of Minnesota. While at the University of Minnesota as a student athlete Amir became one of the great running backs in Minnesota's rich history. Amir amassed over 2,400 yards rushing in his career. His passion and purpose stretched beyond the football field. Amir's mission is to impact and inspire young men across the world. The King in You is an excellent read for young athletes finding their way and navigating through life. Amir Pinnix offers a firsthand account of his personal life as a student athlete and football player for the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers. He follows up his personal stories with powerful and important lessons that are important for young men to learn, in order to grow into productive men. There are few books on the market today that speak directly to young men who are student athletes, and at the same time, relate their experiences in the university classroom and on the football field. This book is a great read, and an excellent vehicle to set young men on a path to success in life.
