Helpful Score: 1

This book is a very accurate portrayal of high school footballl in the South both from the view of the player and then later on from the same player as they face life in the non-football world.I moved to Texas six years ago and if I would have read this book when I was still in California I would have thought it was an exaggeration to make a good story.It is not. I live in a small town in Texas and every Friday at least 1/4 of the town is out at the high school Football game. Elementary kids have spirit days where the highschool football players come and sign autographs. It was very well written, I agree with the 4 1/2 stars it was given because it does drag in places.
