Kansas Jayhawk Tyshawn Taylor in PBS documentary ‘The Street Stops Here’

Jayhawk fans, if you haven’t totally soured on basketball for this season, you should check out The Street Stops Here on KCPT tonight at 9.

The Street Stops Here is a look at basketball blessed but financially struggling St. Anthony

High School and tough love coach Bob

Hurley Sr.

The doc’s preview says:

This film reveals the coach’s life-long struggle to inspire

and motivate

those around him in order to keep the doors of a poor, inner-city

Catholic school in Jersey City, New Jersey, open. This is also the story

about the teenage athletes fighting their way out of the poverty and

desolation that surrounds them, armed with little more than a basketball

and the hard wisdom of a fierce, demanding coach.

One of those kids is Jayhawk Tyshawn Taylor.
