The Gospel According to Mac
# Not everyone believes a believer
π Overview:
Football is a religion to many people. But few know the depths of both faiths as well as Bill McCartney, the former head football coach of the University of Colorado and the founder of Promise Keepers, a Christian menβs ministry. βThe Gospel According to Macβ tells the truth-is-stranger-than-fiction story of Coach Macβs controversial national championship run β two seasons that followed multiple arrests and strife between his mostly African-American players and the Boulder police, continued with McCartneyβs own daughter becoming pregnant by the teamβs quarterback before seeing that same quarterback struck by cancer, and culminated in consecutive Orange Bowl match-ups against Notre Dame. Bill McCartneyβs passionate and often polarizing beliefs have made him many enemies and many admirers, but itβs difficult to deny that he embodies the essential issues facing football in America to this day.
