Courage…shows the character of a man. Faith…shows the strength of that character.
Two strong words to describe the University of Texas Longhorns Hero – Freddie Steinmark.
At the start of the film, we find ourselves at the latter half of Steinmark’s life. We see the hard work and commitment by the family to get a big university football scholarship. That road leads to the University of Texas.
Small in stature at 5’9, Steinmark, played by #Finn Wittrock, consistently shows why he’s on the team. He out runs everybody on the team. He hits harder than anybody on the team, and he has more spirit, heart than anybody on the team. It is a tenacity that leads to a 1969 National Championship for the University of Texas.
However, that glory is short lived, and Steinmark must face his toughest challenge. Known as a self-less team player, he inspired, and encouraged everyone to work hard at doing their best, to hope, and to dream, no matter the adversity.
People, this is a true story of a young man, whose life span may have been cut short, but was lived with “Heart”. So much so, that his image, with the word “Heart”, is exemplified before every UT home game on the big Jumbotron.
Freddie Steinmark – “My All American” for the University of Texas Longhorns.
