In the movie, Remember the Titans, Julius says that "attitude reflects leadership." Imagine if Coach Boone had never taken, the head coaching position. What if Coach Yoast had been named head coach?
Coach Boone's attitude towards his players was tough, in-your-face, and hard-nosed. He forced the players on each other, so they would get to know one another. Their relationships helped them win games, but also helped them come together in the mist of conflict, and brought their community together.
The 1971 Titans of T.C. Williams High School left a legacy of a perfect season going 13-0. But their contribution was more than that. Taking a quote from the movie, Coach Yoast said "you taught this city to trust the soul of a man rather then the look of him." They changed a city.
Many players of the 1971 Titans still live in Northern Virginia and remain in contact, and some remain close friends. The movie reestablished and renewed relationships.[1]
