Michigan State's Underground Railroad led college football integration in the 1960s. The chief engineer was Willie Ray Smith Sr., a Texas high school coach and father of Bubba Smith, Michigan State's College Football Hall of Fame player. Willie Ray Smith drives the Underground Railroad, winding through the segregated South as he picks up players for Michigan State coach Duffy Daugherty.

In The Right Thing to Do, award-winning author Tom Shanahan meticulously details how college football was integrated in the 1960s and sets the record straight on how the sport broke beyond the limits of a whites-only enclave.
