I love this book. In it, Levy shows the world what football in the state of Texas is all about: the bonds between the town, the school, and the community members. Big and Bright is a great read and makes me love football in this state even more. I am proud to coach in Texas.

Gray Levy accomplishes something that not many people can: capturing the true essence of the Texas high school football experience. Levy’s dispatches from across the Lone Star State transport readers to the sidelines, the bleachers, and the chain link fences alongside football fields across Texas on Friday night.
