IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Coach Herman Boone is the legendary high school coach portrayed by Denzel Washington in Remember the Titans (2000). He took over the T.C. Williams High School team in Alexandria, Virginia in 1971 after the school was forced to integrate. Tensions were made worse due to the fact that Coach Boone was given the job over popular White coach Bill Yoast. In the face of significant racial unrest, Coach Boone led the Titans to the Virginia State Championship.
