"In Texas, football is king. It has been portrayed in Hollywood and around the world in films and books for good reason. But there would be no Friday night lights without the hard work and dedication from the many coaches that push the athletes to become the best version of themselves. These coaches work long hours and often serve as the only father figure in many kids lives. They help bridge racial, economic and social divides and become an integral part of the community. Fourth Down, Forever to Go is an intimate look into the life of one such coach: Ken Little. In a battle for his life against cancer off the field, he joined longtime friend and rival Dickey Meeks in leading an improbable turnaround of the Henderson Lions from 1-9 in 2008 to the brink of the 2010 Class 3A State Championship. Whether you are a coach, a business executive or just looking for an in-depth look into what really goes into creating those Friday night lights, Fourth Down, Forever to Go is a must read."

"I have covered sports from Texas to New York and I can attest that in Texas, football is a religion. Much like churches, the football programs oftentimes define the communities that they represent. This is especially true in small towns across the state. My father was a coach, and I have been around athletes my entire life. Often overlooked, it is the hard work and dedication of the many coaches and educators that push the students and athletes to work hard, overcome adversity and achieve greatness, even beyond the game of football. Fourth Down, Forever to Go is an in-depth view into the coaching profession and the impact it has on the lives of the young men that play it. It is a story about working hard, respecting others and overcoming adversity in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds."

-Michael Coleman, KLTV 7 Sports Director
