What does it take to build a dynasty?

In Pierre, South Dakota, a young coach arrived with no experience, no reputation, and exactly one job offer. What followed was one of the most remarkable runs in the history of high school football — seven consecutive state championships, a community transformed, and lessons that go far beyond the game.

Building the Empire is the story of how it happened. Coach Steele takes you inside the locker room, the film room, and the championship moments that defined a program — but more than that, he reveals the philosophy that built it. From his first days as a Graduate Assistant running scout cards and tagging film, to calling plays at 24, to leading a team through a global pandemic with a roster half-depleted by close contacts, every chapter is a masterclass in what it actually means to lead.

This is a book for coaches at every level — and for anyone who has ever tried to build something worth being proud of.

Simon Shields is a senior quarterback at a small Iowa college, staring down the final season of his football career. With no pro future and everything riding on these last few games, Simon must navigate the weight of endings, on the field, in the locker room, and in life. As injuries, relationships, and questions about purpose begin to surface, Simon finds himself caught between the game he loves and the man he’s becoming.

A deeply human story about grit, transition, and the quiet moments that shape us, The Last Snap is the first book in The Ladder Series, which is a tribute to coaches, players, and the families who hold them together. For anyone who’s ever faced the end of a season and wondered what comes next.
