Wissenswertes
"The U" refers to the University of Miami Hurricanes or "The 'Canes" football team. The scandals were:
Brian Pata was found dead as a result of a homicide in November 2006. In 2021, a fellow teammate Rashaun Jones was arrested for said murder.
Various teammates were arrested for guns, drugs, and other violations.
In 2015, Nevin Shapiro, a former Miami businessman and Booster who is currently doing a 20-year stint in federal prison for fraud, has alleged that he showered dozens of Miami players with improper gifts, from prostitutes to jewelry, over a period of eight years. Other benefits included: cash, jewelry, prostitutes, parties in his mansions and on his yacht, elaborate meals and nights out at expensive nightclubs and strip bars, bonuses for athlete's play on the field, special bonuses for injuring players on another team, and, in one instance, an abortion for a stripper a player had impregnated.
Due to the number of players and other participants involved and the repeated and frequent nature of said offenses, there was talk of the regulating body, The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletics Association), imposing the "Death Penalty", which would shut down Miami's football program entirely for at least one year, something it has only done once before, with Southern Methodist University in 1987.

Extraordinary Performance

After having seen the entire season, Josh's performance was, to say the very least, both remarkable and outstanding. No amount of training or acting classes makes this happen. This is raw talent. Gene Hackman's portrayal as Sam Cayhall in The Chamber was always my number one most favorite performance. Josh's performance is on par which is a tough call as Josh was unknown to me prior to his performance in American Sports Story. To say that I would recommend this series to anyone goes without saying. His extraordinary ability to "become" Aaron is truly brilliant. Josh portrays the torture, the pain and the ecstasy exquisitely. A true artist in every sense of the word. I have a feeling we are going to see a great deal more of Josh and that he will be an inspiration to others.

Do yourself a favor, watch this series. You'll be glad you did. I think Aaron would be too.

Hats off to you Josh. It's very rare we are lucky enough to be exposed to your level of genius.
