About the Show
  • Set in a small Alabama town on its’ last leg, Hometown Legend tells a story of faith, football, and redemption. After a tragedy struck the community and the coach of the high school’s once legendary football team retired, Athens’ high school is scheduled to close down at the end of the year. The football team hasn’t had a winning season in 12 years and the team’s, as well as the town’s, spirits are low.

    In honor of the school’s final year, the revered, no-nonsense coach (Terry O’Quinn) returns to the school for one final season and brings hope to the team for one last chance at redemption. A rebellious drifter and the newest member of the team learns that with a little bit of faith, anything is possible. The coach teaches his team about sacrificing individual goals for the team’s goals, and as a result, the town’s enthusiasm leaps toward hope, pride, and survival!

    Best-selling author of the Left Behind series, Jerry B. Jenkins, delivers an inspirational drama, full of redemption and hope that will have you and your family cheering.
