The Bottom: The Rise and Fall of a Basketball Star

The BottomMike Postell, a former basketball star with a troubled past and uncertain future, returns to Carver A&M, a small college, after a two-year absence. He previously left the university and was forced to return home to take care of his ailing grandmother. After his grandmother’s health improved, Mike decided to make another attempt to get his life back on track and possibly play basketball again. Upon arriving on campus, he is looked upon by the whole community as being the key for the university to reach an improbable goal of making it to the Big Tourney, a post-season college basketball tournament, for the first time in the tiny school’s 105-year history. During his journey, he finds himself torn between two beautiful women, who are both in love with him: Farrah - the beautiful head cheerleader who will do just about anything to get her man; and Tiffany - the rich, academic scholar who carries herself with maturity and grace. One will ultimately get the man of her dreams. Jealousy, envy, and rage ensue along with a long-time rival that rears its head. This incredible journey leads to a very shocking and climactic ending.
