Negotiations are being finalized for Kenny Chesney's first documentary, The Boys of Fall, which he has been shooting over the past year. The film's premise is that football is a sport that has the power to really change lives. Kenny reveals, "I have the ability to have some pretty amazing conversations with some pretty big coaches…some pretty amazing players…I knew Peyton Manning when he was a UT Vol…I've watched him apply a lot of the same philosophies to his life…and when you realize how universal what you live is and how much it means no matter who you are or where you live, you start looking a little deeper." Chesney explains, "The documentary came out of that: those conversations, the lessons, the discipline, the fun…And everyone I approached, when they understood we were looking for the soul of the game as its played in high school, not only were they willing to talk to us, they'd pick up the phone - and send us to people they thought we needed to talk to, people like Ohio State's Jim Tressel, Duke University's David Cutcliffe, JA Moore, Jr., the winningest high school football coach in Texas."
