[Brooklyn 3.0]

Gotta feel bad for the kids.

have heard good things about the Doc. on the watch queue

Unbelievable.  That coach is the classic example of someone who could have been really successful if he had just applied himself in a positive way.   He's really smart and a genuine scumbag.

I'm not watching it but what was the point. I'm assuming some kind of money grab since the games were on espn8? They got drubbed every game

Quick summary is the kids weren't going to high school.  They were mostly kids that were 20+ and either got kicked out of high school or went to jail.  The coach broke no laws due to classifying it as a religious school.  Also the coach was a huge scam artist and scammed every one he did business with.  He never paid a single hotel bill for the entire team and was committing school loan fraud.  Then he tricked the players into putting it in their name.
