Tom Berenger gives a riveting performance as legendary football coach Paul "Bear" Bryant in The Junction Boys, from ESPN Original Entertainment--the true-life story about his infamous first preseason training camp in Junction, Texas. On a blistering late-summer day, 100 potential Texas A & M Aggies find themselves in the middle of nowhere facing a drought-punished village where the temperature hovers at 120 degrees. It's harsher than anything they've ever known except for maybe one thing--their new head coach. The Junction Boys is a triumphant story of dedication and how one man's will to win turns boys into players and players into champions.
Editor's Note
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.
