Burro Run follows Coach R.J. MacNamara and his quick-witted fellow football coaches as they push their high school players through dramatic wins and heartbreaking defeats. After experiencing the loss of his father, R.J. buries his fear of failure as he helps to propel the team, inching closer and closer to a chance at a championship.
