Usually the Quarterback is the star of the show, but despite being the football character with the most screen time in the Program, Joe Kane did not feel like the main guy. Maybe it was because the actor playing him (Craig Sheffer) never really had any other major role, or maybe it was because he started out as a Heisman candidate, and flamed out due to personal demons. Perhaps it was because this was not a film with a standard Hollywood sports ending, and that the attempt to go into the seedier side of College Football didn’t go far enough.
Here is our initial thought; “The Program” may eventually get an inductee into the Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame, but we are not sure we would bet on Joe Kane.

Do you want to what we liked most about Darnell Jefferson in the College Football movie, “The Program”? Quite simply out of the core group of football players in the flick, he was the only one who seemed to be on the right path.
We also consider that Jefferson (Omar Epps) played his way to become the team starting Running Back and stole that player’s girl in the process. Oh….and that woman was a young Halle Berry, nearing the apex of her cuteness. That enough makes him a star of this film.
