Silent Count 
Coaching the World’s Only Deaf College Football Team…

You don’t have to like football to enjoy reading SILENT COUNT. You don’t have to know American Sign Language to understand the narration. And you don’t have to be able to hear in order to experience the entertaining resonance of SILENT COUNT. SILENT COUNT is the true story of a high school football coach who hears perfectly well, but finds himself coaching the country’s only deaf college football team. Set in our nation’s capitol at Gallaudet University during the fall of 2007, SILENT COUNT is an easy read that will make you smile, chuckle, and even laugh. It will also bring a frown to your face, at times. Share the coach’s unique journey as football becomes a bridge between cultures, a story that neither the coach nor the reader will ever forget!
