Those events ripped my life apart. Playing basketball for Baylor University was the realization of a lifelong dream. But I could have never foreseen the devastation that would rock our foundation. Coach Scott Drew took over a broken program and his vision of \"hope in the future\" was hard to swallow. Yet, in the midst of so much pain, a miracle happened. Our brotherhood of \"Leftovers\" banded together. We were considered the underdogs, yet that didn't deter our desire to play. As co-captain of that team, I tell a story of tragedy, personal struggle, anger, shaken faith and perseverance. Surprisingly, I learned that we inspired our university, community and nation. The Leftovers is the story behind that story.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1626970181\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 56JPTK000PZ0_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Sayman, Matt\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Readable copy.
