description: I love a good comeback story and this one has it all. - Tony Romo Dallas Cowboys Quarterback This beautifully written story is about the fight and determination they showed to help create the highest of standards for our men's basketball program. - Kim Mulkey Head Coach Baylor Women's Basketball ... a moving story of personal redemption and an eyewitness account of the beginning of one of the sport's greatest success stories ever. - Fran Fraschilla ESPN Analyst Accusations attempted cover-ups and betrayal surrounded the summer of 2003 ending with the disintegration of a rising basketball program. Those events ripped my life apart. Playing basketball for Baylor University was the realization of a lifelong dream. But I could have never foreseen the devastation that would rock our foundation. Coach Scott Drew took over a broken program and his vision of hope in the future was hard to swallow. Yet in the midst of so much pain a miracle happened. Our brotherhood of Leftovers banded together. We were considered the underdogs yet that didn't deter our desire to play. As co-captain of that team I tell a story of tragedy personal struggle anger shaken faith and perseverance. Surprisingly I learned that we inspired our university community and nation. The Leftovers is the story behind that story.
