STORY SUMMARY:

NEXT LEVEL: VINCE YOUNG provides a rare personal account from NFL rookie sensation Vince Young of his successful transition from being a two-time Rose Bowl MVP to becoming the #3 draft pick and first quarterback selected in the 2006 NFL Draft. At the core of Vince's world is a strong support system that includes his mother Felicia, two grandmothers Bonnie King and Betty Young, his sisters LaKeisha and Vintrisha, his uncle Keith, his lifelong buddies AP and Brian, his agent Major Adams and his marketing manager Mike Mu. With cameras capturing the anticipation of the looming draft, Vince's cool and relaxed demeanor seems to keep everyone around him calm. But on the inside, this young man is about to experience a life-altering phenomena that little boys playing tag football only dream of ... fame, fortune, and becoming a force to be reckoned with in the world of professional football. From his thoughts on not winning the Heisman to his first game starting for the Tennessee Titans, this story is about Vince's dreams becoming realities and the struggles that come with achieving his dreams.

-- Vince discusses not being awarded the Heisman Trophy

MVP
