    DD is doing his damndest. And if the partial stories I've heard are in the film, it will have been worth the wait.

    Not only am I looking forward to the documentary...but I’m curious to see how the original VHS tapes that were used for recording are converted to streaming type of media...

    Not to mention the amount of amazing work he does for the athletic department directly now

    How close is the documentary from completion?

    His name is Douglas Domingue. You can find him working about 120 hours a week during the 10 month athletic year for this university.

    On kickstarter only about 3500 was raised with less than 50 backers.

    Douglas maybe a nice and hard working guy, but he was far over his head on this project.

    He was trying to use Shipley's book as factual for the documentary, then a lot of conflicting information, misstatements, and errors in the book came to light plus the personal bias of the author Tough time finding and verifying the facts.

    It was a mess and then the personal tragedy happened.

    It's unlikely this documentary can ever be revived and mount to anything.

    Give the guy a break. It was a good effort on a difficult project with key people dead or dying from those years.

    A lot of truth in this post, but per a conversation 7-8 months ago, he will finish the documentary. There is a lot involved, going forward, that I can't post. But if even 30 min of this thing get released to the public, it will have been worth the wait.

    I donated to the project. I’m not concerned about it at all.
