Samuel L. Jackson plays controversial basketball coach Ken Carter in this drama about a failing inner-city school. When the tough, no-nonsense coach decides to take extreme measures to improve his team's poor academic performance, he makes national news. Although the team is undefeated, Carter locks them out of the gymnasium in an attempt to focus their minds on their studies, and to show them a world beyond drugs, gangs and even basketball. But Carter realises he has an uphill struggle when his controversial approach puts him into opposition with an irate community that wants the team back in the league.

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. Based on the life of controversial High School basketball coach Ken Carter, who made national news in 1999 when he benched his entir e undefeated basketball team for poor academic performance. The coach forfeited two league games and made the gym off-limits until students raised their grades, a move that drew praise and criticism from parents and school officials.
