In my opinion, the most interesting character in the movie was the NCAA investigator. She clearly had story behind her passion and her mission that raised interesting moral questions, but that was totally ignored as they merely used her as a plot device. Exploring the concept of farming poor communities for athletic talent to essentially make money for the sports industry would have been great (especially in light of what goes on in places like DR http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=125580034), but that would have ruined the feel-good fairy tale story.
