Scott Drew, head basketball coach of the NCAA National Championship-winning Baylor Bears, rebuilt a program mired in scandal by instilling a culture of putting Jesus first. The Road to J.O.Y. is packed with leadership and coaching lessons that can equip any leader to make their team a championship team.
When Drew accepted the head coaching position at Baylor in 2003, the job was arguably the worst in all of college sports. The men’s basketball team had been disgraced by scandal: one player murdered a teammate, and the head coach who lied about the details tried to conceal illegal cash payments to his players, including a false allegation that the murdered player had been dealing drugs. It was an unprecedented story and a national embarrassment. Still, Coach Drew had a confident vision of what the program could be, even in the face of such adversity, and he guided his team to the pinnacle of success—Baylor’s first National Championship—while leading with, and living out, his faith.
The Road to J.O.Y. shares:
Biblical principles that have helped Coach Scott Drew lead well through challenging times
An insider’s look at the others-first culture that spurred Baylor’s rebound
Coach’s wisdom for investing in others and creating a successful organization
The leadership lessons Drew has learned from growing up in a famous basketball family and years of coaching
How faith is the foundation for everything Drew does
With equal parts inspirational memoir and personal and professional growth, The Road to J.O.Y. is perfect for anyone who is looking to better live out their faith, lead a team, achieve a goal, or mentor others.
Scott Drew, as head men’s basketball coach of Baylor University, led the greatest rebuild in college basketball history, guiding his team to its first National Championship and the first Big 12 title in school history. Entering his nineteenth season in 2021-22, Scott Drew is tied as the Big 12’s longest-tenured head coach and has notched a school-record of 370 victories in his first eighteen years, including a 27-9 postseason record since 2009. Over the past fourteen seasons, Drew has led Baylor to nine NCAA Tournament appearances, five Sweet 16 berths, three trips to the Elite Eight, and the 2021 National Championship. His efforts have led to numerous coaching awards, including being named the 2017 Basketball Times National Coach of the Year and 2020 NBC Sports National Coach of the Year, as well as the Big 12 Conference Coach of the Year in both 2020 and 2021. Success in the basketball world runs strong in the Drew family--from Scott; brother, Bryce (former NBA player and current Grand Canyon University head coach); and sister, Dana (Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame inductee); to father, Homer (former head coach of Valparaiso and College Basketball Hall of Fame inductee). Drew and his wife, Kelly, are the parents of one daughter, Mackenzie, and two sons, Peyton and Brody. Follow Coach on Twitter @BUDREW.
