Synopsis

"An incredible life story!" —Rich Wingo, Green Bay Packers linebacker

On March 7, 2011, Bill Searcey appeared on the A&E television show Heavy and shared with its viewers his tale of football glory, substance abuse, personal devastation, debilitating obesity, hard-fought weight loss, and longed-for redemption. The audience response to Bill’s honesty and humility was overwhelmingly positive: his harrowing but ultimately uplifting true story propelled Heavy to its highest episode rating to date, with over 1.2 million viewers. But an hour-long show can only contain so much; Bill now feels ready to tell his story—his whole story—in High Tide: A Story of Football, Freefall, and Forgiveness.

Football fans will get their fill of wild and crazy adventures as he recounts his rise at the University of Alabama under the legendary coach Paul “Bear” Bryant and his years in the pros, but this book is about so much more than just football. It’s about a man’s quest for forgiveness after his life has spun out of control, and the peace he finally finds after decades of mental and emotional chaos.
