Herb Brooks
Herb Brooks was the head coach of the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team, famously leading the squad to victory against the heavily favored Soviet Union in what became known as the Miracle on Ice. A former player himself, Brooks was known for his intense coaching style and motivational tactics, including his iconic speech before the game. Tragically, he passed away in a car accident in 2003, but his legacy endures as a pivotal figure in American sports history.
