Summary
Why would a successful college basketball coach walk away from a lucrative job in America's most glamorous sport? The burned out Rus Bradburd, enamoured with Ireland and its music, took a job coaching in the lowly Irish Super League, but was unprepared for what he found. Perplexed by the small town Tralee's Frosties Tigers -- a cast of misfits and underachievers more concerned with their day jobs, Gaelic Football, and Guinness -- he turned to traditional Irish music for wisdom and solace.
