About
Danny Owens is football royalty in his small Texas town. Like his Super Bowl-champion father, who recently passed away, Danny promises everyone that he'll dominate the big game at the end of his seventh-grade season and earn a spot on the varsity team.
But then his English teacher catches him cheating on a test. Despite everyone's protests, she refuses to look the other way. And even though Danny is allowed to retake the test, he knows it won't matter. For a while now, he's been carrying a secret - he can't read. If Danny can't pass his class, he won't be eligible to play in the big championship game that could unlock his future.
Danny knows he's now being tested on every level, and to succeed, he may very well have to choose a different path from his father's.
