He Was 'Dying' to Coach, But Not About To Take A Bullet For It Wounded warrior and amputee Ron Canfield rebounds from PTSD to land a job as basketball coach at the high school where he once starred. Then the teacher’s union challenges Ron’s mental stability, and irate parents demand that he play white kids ahead of more talented blacks. The stakes are high. The starters have a shot at basketball scholarships worth more than $200,000. People have been killed for less. Much less. They’ve been killed for a pair of high tops. But, as a Marine, Ron is trained to run toward the sound of gunfire. And, as a proud African American man, he is not about to be cowered by knuckle-dragging bigots. With the season opener a week away, Ron learns he is in the crosshairs of a stalker. Will Ron’s training as a scout sniper enable him to track down his foe before he strikes in a high school gym filled with fifteen hundred screening fans?
