The tragic story of the 1970 plane crash that took the lives of most of the Marshall University football team, along with coaches, staff, and boosters, was poignantly told in this 2006 film directed by McG. In the aftermath of the crash, as new coach Jack Lengyel tries to rebuild the program, he gets some generous assistance from the coach of in-state rival West Virginia, who lends Lengyel his playbooks and game film about the “veer” offense that Lengyel wanted to install, and who later affixes “MU” memorial decals to the helmets of his own team. Who was this West Virginia coach? He would go on to win two national championships at an ACC school in the 1990s and be elected into the College Football Hall of Fame.
