‘The Object Of The Game’: Bill Belichick, Tony Romo, Mike Tomlin, Urban Meyer, Sean McVay & More Take Part In Gridiron Doc About Inspirational High School Coach; Watch Teaser
The film is inspired by the book and last season of legendary high school football coach Chuck “Chico” Kyle.
Recently wrapped, the film is inspired by the book of the same name written by legendary high school football coach Chuck “Chico” Kyle (pictured below) in which he imparts wisdom about why the game is played. The doc sees Shakespeare and Chaucer teacher Kyle wrapping up his 50 th and final year at inner city Cleveland, Ohio’s Saint Ignatius High School. A humble teacher first,Kyle would sooner regale you with Macbeth and Othello quotes from memory than mention he engineered the greatest high school football dynasty the country has ever seen—winning an impressive 11 big school state championships and four national titles over a dominant 20 year span—and in the process, shaping the lives of thousands of his students and players through a philosophy he would dedicate his life to despite being offered bigger money coaching opportunities elsewhere.
