Narrated by Academy-Award winner Sam Rockwell, SCHOOLED examines the business of college football and basketball and the NCAA's treatment of its athletes. Based on the controversial article “The Shame of College Sports” by historian Taylor Branch, this hard-hitting expose tells a story of how college sports became a billion dollar industry built on dedicated young athletes who are deprived of numerous rights.  Weaving interviews, archival and behind-the-scenes footage, the documentary sheds a new light on all college sports programs. Featuring interviews with TV sportscaster Bob Costas, former Houston Texans star running back Arian Foster, and other figureheads of American sports.
