Smith speaks about the responsibility to be honest with amateur athletes on the realities of playing professionally.

One of the people we will highlight in “Out Of Bounds” is Pastor Matthew Thompson. He speaks about his playing career and how he used basketball as a tool to enhance his life, but not define who he is. “Out of Bounds” will be released in the Fall of November 2015.  

We will feature Hugh Coleman on “Out of Bounds”. Hugh is the head basketball coach at Brighton High, a basketball powerhouse with hopes to win another state championship. A former player at Charlestown High, Hugh is now looking to mentor his players while playing winning basketball.

We will investigate the social, economic, and cultural reasons as to why local athletes may choose a different crossroad that may impact their lives in a negative or positive fashion. Interviews will include

coaches, players, journalist, and celebrities on decisions and turns
athletes made that impacted their lives going forward.

Many athletes come from a broken home and negative surroundings but be- come success stories, while others spiral into drugs, guns, and eventually prison. why? This documentary will be a national eye opener to the local and national sports scene and will be used as a educational tool.
