As men's head coach at UCLA from 1948 to 1975, his Bruin teams claimed 10 NCAA national championships during his final 12 years. Coach Wooden and his wife, Nellie, had been married 53 years when she passed in 1985. "Coach" currently lives in Southern California, and at 92 years of age still lectures across the country.
Jay Carty spent three years on John Wooden's UCLA coaching staff. He also coached two years at Oregon State (his alma mater) and played for the Los Angeles Lakers. For 25 years, he has been a traveling preacher and has written seven books. Carty and his wife, Mary, live in Santa Barbara, California.
