:52:01
Now everybody's gonna know.
:52:03
People are gonna know, Kenyon.
:52:05
- It's not people's business, Kyra.
- Why you jumping down my throat?
:52:08
What's wrong with you?
:52:11
Look, me and coach been talking,
and he thinks I can play college ball.
:52:15
All right, so?
:52:17
So how am I gonna do that
and raise a baby?
:52:22
I don't know. I mean,
I'm not saying it won't be hard.
:52:26
Hard? It's already hard.
:52:28
The kid ain't even here yet
and I'm worried
:52:30
about how I'm gonna feed it,
how I'm gonna pay for this and that.
:52:33
Everything.
:52:35
- I'm not ready.
- So, what are you saying?
:52:37
You want out?
Is that what you're saying?
:52:40
Go ahead and say it.
:52:42
Look, if I wanted to be out,
I would've been out by now, Kyra.
:52:44
That's not it at all. I love you.
:52:46
I wanna be with you.
:52:48
Yeah, as long as it's convenient.
:52:50
I'm thinking about
what's best for us.
:52:51
You're not trying to think about
what's best for both of us,
:52:54
you're thinking about
what's best for you.
:52:56
You don't want me to have this baby.
You wanna leave Richmond.
:52:59
You wanna go play college ball.
So guess what?
:53:02
We ain't got to be ready enough
for nothing, all right?
:53:06
I'm ready enough to do what
I gotta do all by my damn self.
:53:09
So you can take these
and go to the dance yourself.
:53:15
Progress reports?
You're the basketball coach.
:53:16
Look, ma'am, we talked about this.
I don't see what the problem is.
:53:19
Do you know what the API is,
Mr. Carter?
:53:20
No, I don't.
:53:22
The Academic Performance Index.
:53:24
They judge schools on a scale
of one to ten, ten being the best.
:53:27
Do you have any idea
where Richmond falls on that scale?
:53:29
No, ma'am, I have no idea.
:53:31
We're a one, Mr. Carter, and have
been for the last seven years.
:53:34
The state rewards schools
for their performance.
:53:36
So every year I have less money
to pay faculty and staff.
:53:38
- Look, ma'am...
- Can I ask what it is you want?
:53:41
- I want my boys to go to college.
- College?
:53:43
Mr. Carter, Richmond graduates
50 percent of its students,
:53:46
the higher percentage being girls.
:53:47
Now, in my very educated opinion,
you have 15 players on your team,
:53:50
you'll be lucky to graduate
five of them.
:53:52
I'm sorry, ma'am,
but I don't agree with you.
:53:54
Look, these boys signed contracts.
Maybe if you'd read one of them...
:53:57
Your job is to win basketball games,
Mr. Carter.
