Prologue

 

See those three boys over there?

Yeah, the kings of football?

The ones with their heads in their hands, nursing their second beers of the night and trying to figure out what the hell happened to their season?

They choked.

That’s right. These All-Americans became the biggest upset in college football and a complete embarrassment to their town. 

Can it really be that bad?

Yes.

Former national champions, Braxton College was annihilated this year.

No, not just annihilated, but completely and utterly destroyed. 

Three games.

That’s it.

They won three games all season.

Interceptions. Dropped balls. Missed blocks. Fumbles. You name it, they did it.

First, there’s Crew Smith, the protective one. Once an NFL hopeful, he now holds the record for the most interceptions thrown in a season by a quarterback. 

Next, is Hollis Hudson, the mysterious tight end who keeps everything locked down. He couldn’t run a route this year to save his life. 

And to round out the trifecta of crap, there’s River Tate, the popular frat boy. He’s supposed to be a superstar wide receiver but dropped more passes than he caught this season.  

Guys wanted to be them. 

Girls wanted their hearts. 

But at this point, no one would want to touch them with a ten-foot pole.

The truth is, they’ve screwed up their NFL aspirations.

Maybe their entire lives. 

There are three stories to be told . . . 

This is Crew’s.
