Amazon best seller in Mentoring & Coaching

In the summer of 2006, author Daron K. Roberts was just one year away from earning a law degree from his dream school: Harvard. But that summer, in the throes of a clerkship at a Texas law firm, Roberts had a revelation - he wanted something different. Very different. Daron Roberts wanted to be an NFL football coach.

After making the transition from Harvard Law student to NFL newbie, Roberts worked as a coach for the Kansas City Chiefs, Detroit Lions, West Virginia Mountaineers, and the Cleveland Browns. But he’s not forgotten how hard it was to take that first step in a new direction. In Call an Audible, Roberts shares his inspiring journey and reveals his playbook to help guide your next transition.

excellent book for any aspiring coach.

Darren quickly explains how to add value to an organization while building a skill set. The NFL is a difficult group to access as a non pro player. Breaking takes incredible sacrifice that cracks the will of most people from what I have read.

Most Dream and Action Inspiring Book!

I read this book when it was first published, and it changed my life...listening to it narrated by the author tops even that! Coach DKR teaches us how to shift directions, find our dreams, leap out of our comfort zones, and work hard to design and build a life we love. Call An Audible shares a life map and fire we all need. Daron has the calming, strong voice of a preacher and a sage. Hearing this book through his reading will truly bless your life beyond measure. A must-read!

Great example of never giving up

This is a book is like the movie of Rudy for people who want to coach or do anything you dreamed of doing. How bad do you want something? This book explains the drive, passion and desire of his quest to be a coach. Good use of humor to offset the tough times. Really enjoyed the book.

Great read

I was intrigued to hear about his transition from a Harvard law student to be a NFL coach and I've enjoyed it very much to hear his story. The narration added to the overall story

I laughed, I cried. I felt like I was there in the NFL rooms!

Liked: loved the lessons Coach Darin shared and how he applied to live and business. Loved the insider look at the business and work culture of the NFL. Loved the chance to gauge “would I do that” to reach my dreams? (Did not like my answer to that question but the future is still unwritten!)

Thank you for this gift of inspiration and your stories of perseverance. What would happen if we never gave up on our dreams? It appears they might just come true.


Disliked: that it ended. Going straight to microwins!
