This movie is an inspirational story of love, war, and mentorship all built on the rails of one high school coach’s quest and a heartwarming triumphant process to build men through the winningest football win streak the nation ever knew.

Through their journey together, the team gained insight into the power of sacrifice, shouldering responsibility, and cherishing love without condition.

The story is told from the perspective of Tom Saylor’s son, Todd. Through Todd’s eyes, the audience is able to see the impact that Coach Saylor’s coaching and teachings have on his players, as well as the challenges that he faces in his own life.

By telling the story through Todd’s eyes, the film highlights the emotional journey of both the father and son and the impact that Coach Saylor’s life and teachings have had on his family.
As the season unfolds, the pressure mounts on the team to keep their impressive winning streak going, while also contending with the looming threat of the draft. This creates an emotionally charged atmosphere as the boys come to grips with the gravity of their situation, and learn the valuable lessons their coach teaches. Tom served as a role model to many of the boys, so he answers the call to father the fatherless. Tom was an exemplary figure to many of the boys, so when the opportunity arose to take on the role of father to the fatherless, he answered the call without hesitation.
Beyond his role as a coach, Tom focused on developing strong, resilient young men for the Vietnam War, using football to instill values such as teamwork, leadership, and perseverance. He aimed to provide his players with a sense of purpose and courage, and his dedication to character development had a lasting impression on their lives, earning him the title of “Builder of Men.” As the team faces its toughest opponents yet, Saylor’s own personal struggles come to a head when his young son, 10-year-old Todd Saylor approaches him with a question that will change his life—forever.

Todd Saylor, the son of the main character and the film’s producer, is excited to bring this story to life.
