The movie We Are Marshall, which is also based on the crash, will be part of the talk show discussion. “It’s great that Craig is coming out with the memoir right now,” said Brooks, who was a freshman at Marshall University at the time of the tragedy.
“Even though two of the movie’s high-profile characters were African-Americans (Nate Ruffin and Reggie Oliver), a lot of stories were missed that couldn’t be included in that two-hour period, particularly as it related to the African-American ball players, their families and Marshall’s African-American students who were there (in 1970).”
