This book starts with Mick Johnson (the main character) as a 4 year old playing football in the back yard with his Dad. He was trying to get pass his dad and score a touchdown. When he finally did, Mike was so happy and was jumping around like a madman. Fast forwarding to a few more years down the line where Mike is entering high school, and is trying to win a starting spot on the Varsity football team. There is just one problem,  the returning running back, Drager, is large and in charge and does not plan on giving up his starting spot anytime soon. After becoming the starting running back for his varsity team due to an injured Drager. Mick lit up the world by storm until the championship game when Mick came up one yard short of scoring the game winning touchdown for his team. He did not have what it took to get the extra yard. After this he was determined to become stronger and fast. One day, one of his teammates introduced him into something that would make him faster, stronger, and a better football player, but the price Mick would be willing to take might affect the rest of his career as a football player.
