-I thought Everybody's All American had a pretty good story as well.
-Another movie with football as a subplot was The Last Boyscout.
-Quarterback Princess is also pretty decent with Helen Hunt playing the starring role in a true story about a girl who tries out for the football team and is forced into the starting lineup at QB after injuries to the 1st and 2nd stringer. Not a bad flick.
-Anyone who loves the oldie classics should try "Moochie plays Pop Warner" which stars the little kid from "Old Yeller." I was surprised in this one with how much attention they paid to the X's and O's...you will see alot of the single wing offense and I saw them run the old statue of liberty a time or two. This one is from the early 50's and truly is a pretty much undiscovered classic.
Knute Rockne All American (1940)
Everybodys All American (sort of)
Best of Times (Which wasn't too bad)
and
Johnny Be Good (again kind of)

I knew there was something I was missing off of his original list.

Isn't there a movie called the Ghost or something. I know it had something to do with a rb from LSU and then he went on to play in the pros for washington. But I may be wrong on that. I'm wanting the actor in it is Dennis Quaid (sp).
