Growing up in Newport News Vick was a young man with a loving mother and a strong fatherly influence in the form of coach Tommy Reamon.
The Warwick high school educator has now written a book about not only his dealings with Michael and Marcus Vick, but also the other young men he has helped mold - like UVa product Aaron Brooks.
The book is called, "Rough Diamonds" - a coach's journey.
