HS Football Team Lies To Get On ESPN





UPDATED 8/29, 4:20 p.m. ET: New details about Bishop Sycamore emerged Monday. It turns out, the team also played a game on Friday, which made Sunday’s game its second in just three days.

According to Awful Announcing, the game was scheduled by Paragon Marketing Group, whose president, Rashid Ghazi, denied having knowledge of Bishop Sycamore’s Friday game. Ghazi also said the company did not do due diligence in researching the team.

“We regret that this happened and have discussed it with Paragon, which secured the matchup and handles the majority of our high school event scheduling,” ESPN said in an official statement. “They have ensured us that they will take steps to prevent this kind of situation from happening moving forward.”

The outlet also confirmed that the Ohio High School Athletic Association doesn’t recognize Bishop Sycamore as a legitimate high school, and their “physical location, practice facilities, and roster eligibility could not be verified.”

The team’s head coach, Roy Johnson, also allegedly has an active arrest warrant thanks to fraud charges, while many of their players are said to have already graduated high school, which essentially means a bunch of adults got rolled by some high school kids.
 
That’s crazy. When I herd there was a high school game coming on I was thinking it had Arch Manning playing in one of the teams. Jesus this is something you’d expect to happen in the 80’s & 90’s, not 2021.
 
LeBatard and then bout to have the funniest show ever.
