After tonight's Heisman Trophy ceremony, ESPN will debut "The Marinovich Project," a documentary telling the story of former USC QB Todd Marinovich, who was groomed to be a star athlete by his father from a very young age and eventually flamed out in the NFL.
Marinovich has found peace in painting since ending his football career. Daily News columnist Tom Hoffarth caught up with the former Trojan star to talk about his life and art.

Ihad read the Esquire article on my flight to FL Saturday afternoon and while watching the Heisman Awards show, saw the advertisement for The Marinovich Project, so I had to watch it as well. The story was well written and produced. I must hand it to Todd for being so honest and candid about his story, the ups and downs, and the results of his drug abuse. I felt so bad for him and so good for him all at the same time.
This is definitely a must watch show and I'll watch it again, as I missed the last 10 minutes becasue the plane had landed and the in-flight TV was turned off.
Fight On Todd... always.
Loved it but I want to watch it again with my son. How do I get a copy?
