Trivia

The technical adviser for the basketball scenes was USC head coach Tim Floyd, who was chosen because of his closeness to the film's subject, Don Haskins. During the 1980s, Floyd was Haskins' top assistant coach at UTEP (formerly Texas Western). His father, Lee Floyd, was a longtime coach and also a former Texas Western basketball player.

Goofs

During the championship game against Kentucky, #44 hurts himself and must leave the game. A few minutes later he is announced as out for the game with the leg injury, but he is seen in several shots in the second half as being on the court and playing.

Share this

Early in the film, the radio announcer identifies himself as broadcasting on KTSM. At the Seattle game, the radio announcer says WTSM. KTSM is the correct El Paso radio station.

When Bobby Joe Hill is forced to run stadium stairs as punishment by his coach, his microphone can be seen through the back of his T-shirt as he is bending over.
