For those who have never heard the story, there is a great movie being released on December 22nd. It is called We Are Marshall. It is about the true story of the 1970 Marshall Football Team who when traveling back from a football game in North Carolina, their plane crashed killing 75 of the players and coaching staff. As the whole Huntington, West Virginia area struggled with the loss, one man, Jack Lengyel, was determined to rebuild the program and help a community in need.

Here is the trailer from the movie:

Matthew McConaughey plays the character of Jack Lengyel. From all accounts I have read and heard, “Mr Longhorn” is excellent in this film. Speaking of McConaughey, here is a clip of Matt Damon, doing his best McConaughey impression:
