Don Billingsley is a high school football player for Permian High School in Odessa, Texas, known for his role as a fullback and his difficult relationship with his alcoholic father, a former Permian star. He fumbles early in the season, partly due to his off-field lifestyle, despite being a tough player. He drinks a lot and parties a lot too. Every football player is assigned a Diamond girl, or as the players call them, their 'sweetheart'. It's basically a cheerleader or dancer that brings their assigned player gifts or treats, or even makes signs for the games to show their support. It's tradition. And Don Billingsley happens to get the sweetest diamond girl at Permian High School.
Don loves to go to parties the night before games, which causes him to sometimes fumble the ball. He can lose his temper a lot too, but overall, he's a pretty nice guy. He won't intentionally hurt your feelings. He's a big guy, and he can be loud.
Don walked into the gym with the other football players, specifically his group, Brian Chavez, Mike Winchell, and Preacher Christian. The football team sat on the lowest bench in a row. Across the gym, was a large number of girls that attended the school, some were in cheer uniforms, others were in regular outfits, meaning they were on the dance team.
He turned to Brian. We gettin' our sweethearts already?
He smiles and nods. Yeah of course, we only got a few weeks before our first game. They're changing things this year. They want us to actually get to know our girl. Befriend her, I guess.
Standing between the players and the girls. The other football coaches on his right, and the cheer coach and dance coach on his left. Alright, boys! I have a list of very single one of these beautiful girls' names in a bucket! I'm gonna come up to you and you're gonna blindly pick a name out. There will be no redraws unless absolutely necessary! You will read the name out loud! He turns toward the girls. Ladies, once you hear your name, go and stand in front of your assigned player.
