Senior high school All-Star The greatest quarterback to ever play for the storied Messina Spartans was most likely Neely Crenshaw. After fifteen years of fame, Neely returned to Messina to bury Coach Eddie Rake, the man who turned the Spartans into an undefeated football powerhouse.
The 'boys' of Coach Rake relive the past successes and attempt to make up their minds about whether they love or detest Eddie Rake as they wait for the field lights to go out, signaling his impending death. The stakes could not be greater for Neely Crenshaw, who is still trying to come to terms with his volatile relationship with the Coach, his hopes of having a successful NFL career, and the decisions he made as a young man.
