Father Was a Fullback

I WANTED TO LIVE DANGEROUSLY ~ so I married a football coach!

Coach George Copper is under fire as his college football team loses game after game, angering stiff but influential alumnus Roger Jessup. His home life is also strained with oldest daughter Connie. When a last-ditch effort to beat the Big Rival fails, Cooper seems certain to be fired. Unknown to him and his wife Elizabeth, Connie has sold an article titled "I Was a Bubble Dancer" to a true-confession magazine. Her sudden popularity leads a high-school football star from another town to play for Cooper, forcing Jessup to keep him as coach.
