When Marcus moves to a new town near the end of summer break, he knows he'll want to try out for the football team. No kids are around for him to practice with, so he begins a solo quarterback target routine at the local park. While practicing one day, he's joined by a middle aged man. No name, not much talk, just good football and hard tackles - not what high school quarterbacks are used to! Marcus's skills improve and he looks forward to these odd practices. Over time, he discovers the name of his unofficial coach and what he has in common with his new football team. But, how is it that a middle aged man can cause so much trouble for a teenager? And, what secret does Marcus hide to protect his older friend and his family at the expense of Marcus's own reputation? Read about football, high school, friends, family and more in Pop by Gordon Korman.
