- Glory Road tells the true story of Don Haskins (Josh Lucas), a high school basketball coach who, in 1962, took the reins of the Texas Western Miners, an underdog NCAA Division One team. Haskins's insistence on recruiting the best players available to him, regardless of the color of their skin, revolutionized the sport ... and changed the course of history.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"'Glory Road's' strength is the way in which it blends social awareness into the sports genre."
-
"In the end, a sports movie is only as good as the adrenalin rush it provides in the climactic match, and there, finally, 'Glory Road' hits on all cylinders with nonstop action and a powerful emotional impact."
-
"Stirring tale of a team whose big win speeds the integration of intercollegiate sports."
-
"This isn't a great film, but it's a surprisingly good and confident one, with a minimum of the showboating that often substitutes, in the feelgood genre, for simple feelings."
-
"As Coach Haskins would say, it wins because it sticks to the fundamentals."
