He was handed a terminal diagnosis. But in what could have been his final game, he made an unforgettable call....
Tishomingo County, Mississippi, 1985. David Lee Herbert was passionate about coaching high-school football. But one night, driving the team bus home from a game, he came upon an accident that had claimed the life of his daughter. Two years later, the devoted Christian was diagnosed with ALS.
Despite his personal death sentence, Coach Dave and his wife clung to faith and persevered when others might’ve thrown in the towel. And he achieved the legendary status in his final season, famously calling an improvised play with seven seconds left that delivered a miraculous playoff win.
In Playing for Overtime, author and sportscaster Al Ainsworth documents the remarkable dedication of an ordinary man overcoming extraordinary odds. Showing much more of the coach than his well-publicized gameplay, Ainsworth reveals an inspirational account of the incredible impact a single person can have.
Be moved to tears and laughter in this tender and profound run to the end zone.
Playing for Overtime: The David Lee Herbert Story is a captivating sports biography. If you like real-life challenges, heroic achievements, and moving stories, then you’ll love Al Ainsworth’s tale of football, family, and faith.

Coach Herbert lived through my two biggest fears, losing a child and having an illness or injury that would leave me dependent on others. His example, shows that a person going through the most difficult things imaginable, can still have faith in God and not blame God for their circumstances. To me, the book is also a love story about a husband and his extraordinary wife.
I recommend this book for anyone that still believes character matters. We have not had many of those examples lately. This book is for everyone whether you are a sports fan or not.
A book about courage, tragedy, faith and love.
