You would think that living in a ‘castle’-like house, being waited on hand and foot, and being the best player in minor league football with the potential of signing to major league, would be every college university student’s idea of heaven. Not in the case of Samuel Saber. Between the scandals and bad publicity involving his father, to the complication that is his love life, Sam Saber’s life is far from the blissful content you would be led to believe. Sam is a simple guy with only a couple of ambitions, so why is it turning out to be so hard to achieve them?
