In the 1966 NCAA basketball championship game, an all-white University of Kentucky team was beaten by the all black team from Texas Western College. The game helped destroy stereotypes about black athletes. Filled with revealing anecdotes, The Baron and the Bear is the story of two passionate coaches and the teams they led through the ups and downs of a college basketball season.
