Coach Jim Keith

I can't be mistaken--the real Jim Keith was the white haired gentleman sitting behind Jeffrey Donovan at the dinner where the girls gave him the gift. Maybe someone mentioned it already, but I didn't see anything when I scanned the comments. What a great movie--and reading about Coach Keith, who it seems just passed away from stomach cancer on December 5th, 2011--what a good man he was!

You are right. In an extra scene during the credits, the actor had coach Keith take his seat. Several of the real players from that first regional team (who may also have been extras in that scene) came up and spoke.
