    • Trivia
      Don Haskins: A gas station attendant on the recruiting trip.
    • Goofs
      The movie makes it seem like Willie Cager misses almost the entire second half of the season with his heart condition. In reality Cager played in 27 out of 29 total games for the Miners that season.
    • Quotes

      Coach Don Haskins: [recruiting] Brother, without a little work I don't think you can get past an old-timer like me.

      Orsten Artis: Get past you... I will go past you, through you, over you, under you, around you. As a matter of fact I will spin you like a top, twist you in a pretzel, eat your lunch, steal your girl and kick your dog at the same time... pshh, get past you.

    • Crazy credits
      During the credits, an inset shows several of the actual people involved (Don Haskins, David Lattin, Pat Riley, Orsten Artis, Willie Worsley, Harry Flournoy, and Nevil Shed) commenting about the championship game and its implications. Video of that game is also shown.

    Left out some important facts to boost the hype, but decent movie
    First off, it was just too similar to remember the titans, but I liked that movie two. The only thing that bothered me about this movie was that removal of some important facts.

    Texas Western had three Black Players on the team already, upon Don Haskin's Arrival. Don Haskin's wasn't the sole person leading a movement to recruit black players. In their conference, they played many teams with black players.

    Loyola-Chicago, while not fielding 5 black starters, fielded four of them and won the championship in 1963. So even though Texas Western was the first team to win with all black starters, other primarily black teams have won prior.

    At the end of the movie, they talk about how people felt black players could never be as good as white players. Even as the movie shows, the all-American player they went against (I believe he was from University of Texas) was Black. The NCAA recognized that player as one of the best players in the sport.

    Again, it was a good movie, but I felt a little let down that they manipulated the story a tad for the sake of entertainment.
