Tom Berenger stars in this ESPN movie as Paul "Bear" Bryant, the legendary Texas A&M football coach. Hired in 1954 to turn around the university's struggling football team, Bryant subjected the 100 hopefuls who showed up for training camp to a grueling regimen in the Texas heat. An intense physical test that not many believe they'll survive, players are soon dropping left and right. However, through this test Bryant determines which players have the drive to win, and by the end of summer he has put together a close knit team of 35 football players who believe they can conquer anything.
