Stamos will play a temperamental college basketball coach who ends up getting fired, landing a job at an elite all-girls private high school. “John is absolutely perfect for this role and we are thrilled that he’ll bring his incredible talent and heart to this project,” said Agnes Chu, Disney+’s senior vice president of content, in a statement. “Disney has long been known for our aspirational sports stories, and we are so proud to be working with David and Dean on a relatable series that both inspires and entertains. It’s a great fit for Disney+.”
