“COACH CARTER” ***
6 p.m., FX
Samuel L. Jackson again shows why he’s a star in this fact-based 2005 drama about a businessman who returns to his California high school as the basketball coach. Concerned that the atmosphere doesn’t foster discipline, he institutes his own rigid set of rules — which his players don’t like much — to reverse the team’s record. Well-directed by Thomas Carter (“Save the Last Dance”), the film also features Robert Ri’chard, Debbi Morgan and Ashanti.
MPAA rating: PG-13
