Young running back Ernie Davis (Rob Brown) is recruited by Syracuse University and its head football coach Ben Schwartzwalder (Dennis Quaid). Davis excels at his sport, and in 1962, as a member of the Syracuse Orangemen, he becomes the first Black football player in college history to win the Heisman Trophy. Davis had accomplished his feat despite racism of teammates, officials, and the college football scene. But, tragedy lies ahead; Davis has leukemia and dies at age 23.
