Carl English is my second cousin, I’m so happy for him to see that he got so far

[@mikewarren8809]

Excellent doc. Carl English shows the success that dedication, talent and character can bring. He could have easily dropped his dream and been successful in a traditional career. But he didn't. Well done Carl English. Your parents would be proud. And well done Jeremy Eaton; keep up the doc work.

Jeremy, wonderful effort, great editing and a super perspective on a great kid from Patrick's Cove.

This is great! Can you guys please post your original documentary of Carl as a teenager "From Highway to Hard Court: Carl English's Quest for the NBA"? Cannot find it anywhere!

There should have been a Canadian made-for-TV movie about this guy. There would have been if he was a mainlander.
