An owner of a sporting goods store accepts the role of basketball coach at his former high school, where he was a champion athlete. Disgusted by his players’ actions, he sets out to change things.
Ken Carter takes the position of basketball coach at his old high school in a low-income Richmond neighborhood in 1999. Carter is as dismayed by his players’ poor attitudes as he is by their poor play performance, and he sets out to improve them. He enforces a stringent regime, which involves written contracts that require players to behave professionally, adhere to a dress code, and earn good grades. Any initial skepticism is quickly dispelled as Carter’s squad becomes an unbeaten rival. Carter, on the other hand, takes decisive action when the overconfident team’s conduct starts to stray, with so many students performing poorly in class. Carter cancels all team activities and locks the court before the team demonstrates satisfactory academic success, much to the chagrin of the team, the school, and the community. In the ensuing debate, Carter struggles to preserve his methods, determined to show the boys that good morals are important for their futures, and learns that he has had a greater effect on them than he ever thought.
