Bishop Sycamore - The High School That Isn't
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 авг 2021
- I thought I would just post a few tweets laughing about how bad Bishop Sycamore got destroyed by IMG Academy on Sunday, August 29th. This is what we call the rabbit hole: It just goes deeper and deeper and deeper and suddenly you're making a video about this whole situation because it's more heinous than you could imagine.
If I'm inclined to believe what I think is happening: At least three men belong in jail for this. Maybe more. The sad part is that kids suffer, the high school football scene becomes more cynical and win-focused, and it will keep happening in a different scenario.
All Bishop Sycamore had to do was not go on national television. If they didn't do that, they're not a massive meme and also not under potential investigation by the state of Ohio.
It went from hilarious to disgusting. Then even more disgusting. Fuck this whole situation.

At least Bishop Sycamore’s initials perfectly describes what they are.
Awesome comment
THATS A GOOD ONE 😂
As a certain Washingtonian once said, “The culture is actually damn good”
True
I was gonna say, there's some comedic irony in their initials and the team.
"They went 1-11"
Now I want to know what "elite school" lost to a literal scam.
I wish I could find the Game when my Brothers Semi Pro Team the Cleveland Falcons beat a team of Russian players most of whom defected at some point on the tour. This was in the early 90s and was televised on the old Sports Channel. I live in Ohio and never heard of Bishop Sycamore. I always thought Grand Canyon was some Online college then I found out they had a Basketball team.
5:51 The team is called Birmingham Brother Rice
@@njackson6807 Saw the video and missed that factoid. Wow that is so embarrassing that Brother Rice lost to a scam! They traditionally have got one of the best high school football programs in Michigan. I grew up in Michigan and they are known for being a good football school
@@sportzmen123 To be fair, they were playing against 20-somethings.
Well they certainly all aren’t Elite, but teams like St Edwards, St Ignatius, Massillon, and Hoban are some of the best in the area and you can see them destroy Bishop Sycamore. I probably a small public school that doesn’t have a freshman team(common in the area)
This gives a whole new meaning to “fantasy football team.”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I see what you did there
Take an upvote you...
Exactly 😂😂😂😂😂

Swear to god, Bishop Sycamore was on my school’s schedule this year. Our assistant coaches were making jokes about how they could’ve subbed in for them if we played.
As for the game in this video, IMG Academy beat Bishop Sycamore 58-0, not 558-0.
God imagine if you ended up playing them. It would have been laughter bringing laughter.
I don't know what position you play, But you got robbed of stats when they canceled it!

This was also legitimately dangerous. IMG is a football factory, they could compete with a low level college team, these kids had zero business even being on the field with them.
They could not compete with any low level college team. Maybe some JuCo teams, but any 4 year program would demolish IMG.
Point definitely understood but gotta come at the college thing real quick. IMG is incredible for HS standards but that sounds like the old Bama vs Browns "debate." And just like the NFL being made up of the cream of the crop of college, the same applies to college being made up of the best of the best of high school.
Except the players for Bishop Sycamore aren’t kids. They’re sorry grown ass men.
Essentially it’s Division 1 recruits versus juco players.
The D1 recruits are just superior natural athletes with great coaching and nutrition and discipline and sufficient rest.
The Juco players are usually not as talented.
@@JoeCab Not all of 'em. And even those grown-ass men were getting injured a ton, partly because of BS's completely nonexistent training and playing two games in three days.

It’s funny knowing that the Bishop Sycamore had grown men on their team and they still lost by 50.
Almost 60 lol
Is it ever a good idea to have people past their prime play against younger and more spry players?
My high school played them last year and beat them 36-6 🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's all in the preparation...
@@Linkonpark100
Apparently they were in their early 20's....that's your prime.

It was until they got that 20k in PPE money during covid.

I couldn't agree more!
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
The State of Ohio did indeed investigate Bishop Sycamore and found that it was a scam. But due to some technicality, they couldn't do shit about it. I watched the "BS High" documentary and so should everyone else.
As an Ohio resident. I was literally waiting for you to do this video. It’s crazy, the biggest scandal in HS football is brewing right in front of us. It’s disgusting. And to think they had a QB who’s the same age as me and they still got pwned by a regular high school team
IMG isnt a regular high school team, theyre a bunch of reclassed 20 year olds looking for more shots at scholarships. you wonder why theyre so much better than every other team lol. some of those players probably get bribed checks to play aswell.
This what I've been waiting for...

It's rare that I hear legitimate disgust on a moral level from you rather than the kind of disgust that comes with watching a sports team fail through incompetence. It's completely justified.
There was some similar animosity when he talked about EDP after that video came out of him and the child protector people. He also did the same thing in his Rams segment. Just pure, moral outrage.
@@charlesrupp3976 this is true, and it was every bit as justified.
@@charlesrupp3976 which video did he go all out unironic rage on the Rams?
@@AYoungAdultOnRUclips In his Ram's video. He mostly went off on the owner though.
@@AYoungAdultOnRUclips It was near the end of the Rams lolcow video. He went of justified tirade against Stan Kroenke, because of how he did the city of St. Louis, the Arsenal Club, and driving homeowners out of their property in Texas. The latter which made one of the owners depressed, it drove him to kill himself.

@@Azores-1994 Luckily they'll gonna stay drunk given the frustrating trajectory of some of his teams
@@ronaldomendoza7578 out of all the teams in Pittsburgh, the Steelers are the only one that frustrate me because they insist on changing the offense to suit a declining Ben.
The Pens are still good, the only thing that really killed them last year was a fluke lapse in goaltending, and the issues Jarry does have are overblown, he'll do fine next year. You could argue Tanev and McCann are big losses but McCann was overplaying heavy and even for what Tanev brought to the table, escaping the latter half of that deal is good for them. Heinen becomes what is essentially a direct replacement for McCann, being nearly identical in physique, and I'd argue Heinen's the better player. Outside of that, unless you consider losing Ceci being a huge hit, the Pens honestly got better. Especially when they get Malkin back, the only real frustrating thing about the Pens to me is Sullivan imitating Dan Bylsma; it doesn't matter how much better Bryan Rust gets, he *needs* Dominik Simon on a line with Sid. No wonder his production seemingly nose-dived.
The Pirates don't even frustrate me because all I know from them is losing and a fluke Wild-Card win in 2013. Maybe if I was part of the older crowd that could appreciate people like Clemente and Stargell outside of knowing they were beastly players, I'd feel differently, but I just watched them waste the primes of, what, McCutchen, Marte, Bell, Harrison, Polanco, and I'm sure Hayes and Reynolds will be on that list too pretty soon, it happens every time in various forms when we have an elite talent, and if anything, it's entertaining; how will *this* player have his career wasted? It'll most likely involve playing them though 4 leg injuries and ruining their ceiling, then trading them for a pittence when their value deminishes.

One thread on a different site I laughed as actual Marxists came were right wing people were attacking Democrats as Socialists the Marxists actually explained the basic Marxist principles(I know this and lots of other movements) and then informed the Right wing kooks that Democrats to real Marxists are center right tools of the capitalistic machine.
People on the left or right often have no idea how far right or left the other side is actually and thus attack centrists or even people who are just not as radical as them as the extreme of the other side.
(Marxism is a failed idea especially as it requires non democratic rule.
I haven't paid attention to the commies at ESPN for years. They haven't been about sports for as long as I can remember now.
They’re back. Life Christian Academy in Virginia has publicly announced they are going to play against BS. Somebody needs to stop them.

Thanks for making this video bro. This is sad to watch as a black man. Seeing older black guys exploit young black youth. This dudes have nothing and being exploited. I hope the coach and the others involved go to jail. I cried watching this. Kids from poor home being exploited.

Even the name "Bishop Sycamore" is suspect. It seems like they took a random word generator for high school football team names. "We're associated with the archbishop of a type of tree."
So was my school when we played IMG before we changed it a couple years ago. At least we were a legit school.

As a High School special teams coach I am sick to my stomach with what happened. I am glad that not one kid was seriously hurt unless it was reported.
I think one of the players for Bishop tore his ACL. The player that was laying in the end zone? I think he was wearing number 54 but I can't remember exactly. He was a big guy but he was laying there in a lot of pain with his knee. I figured it was probably his ACL or MCL but turns out it was an ACL tear. When I played I was in a similar situation as their QB. We didn't have a punter on the team so I threw passes and I punted the ball. As a special teams coach what did you think about them punting out of passing formations?
West Toronto Prep brought me back here
Bishop Sycamore played my high school Tree. Funny seeing something not about the Cleveland Browns that I relate to on this channel. Glad you covered it this was certainly very strange to all of us in Northeast Ohio.
BS played my team (Massillon) last year. I saw that game and knew something was wrong with them. Mismatched equipment, lazy execution, etc. extremely sketchy program. Shame for those kids they need to get out.
Your school needs to fire anyone involved in scheduling that game for failing the basic check out the credentials of the school your going to play. I real easy search Bishop Sycamore there never was one this basic curiosity to me. They are not registered by any sports organization. They don't show up on Google maps. They don't have the information any real team would have.

Everything about 'elite high school' football has always been sketchy to me, including these schools that go for a 'national championship' but don't ever play a school from their own region. It's like AAU basketball where you never hear of these players until they get drafted, or the teams in this 'business' just don't care about academics and do the bare minimum for their students, which is how you get Bishop Sycamore and this entire racket.
I'm sure IMG cares so much about thr academics of their athletes
Bishop Sycamore is really just a symptom of a bigger problem... which will get ignored to treat the symptom, because that's what we do in this country of late-stage capitalism.

Google maps literally disproves that they have a location in Easton. Nowhere on maps is there anywhere for them to even play, unless they always play offsite, in which case I’ve never heard of an elite football prep school without a field. If ESPN did literally any due diligence they could’ve figured this out in about 10 minutes
And there never was a Bishop Sycamore should be a clue.

I followed high school football for several years when I lived out in Ohio, and the second I saw "Bishop Sycamore", I was like "Who the hell is that?"
I know all the big schools that are good year in and year out. I lived close to Cincinnati so it was usually Colerain, Elder, St. Xavier, Archbishop Moeller, but you often heard about St. Edward in Cleveland. And there are a couple decent ones in Columbus and up in the NE, but the best ones are usually down by Cincinnati.
I knew this had to be some fake team about 2 minutes after I turned the game on.
There is a high school down by Cincinnati known as Sycamore High School. They play in Division 1 (Ohio's largest schools), and some years are even halfway decent. Definitely not this team though.
The fact that ESPN was able to vet the team is beyond us. I hope everyone involved with the making of BSHS goes to jail for life.
Meanwhile, this is where Manti Te'o's girlfriend graduated.
It's an older meme sir, but it checks out.
Apparently a group call Paragon Marketing Group did it atleast Tree tweeted that
Modern ESPN in a nutshell.
@Cam for being an utter scam and ruining the lives of children, did you not watch the video
ESPN probably didn't Vet them. Just like somehow a Serial Killer ended up on the Dating Game, but did not actually go out with anyone on the show as the Girl picked the Serial killer but then backed out. Yet the Guy is still known as the Dating Game Killer. ESPN probably got rid of their Vetting Department. Wish they would show real teams from Ohio Playing as Spectrum Cable has bogarted the High School games for the most part in the State. Bally's showed a St. Eds game the other day against an out of State Opponent. And Spectrum is offering its games to non Cable subscribers for a ridiculous 10 dollars a game. I can see paying 10 dollars a month or a season.
My DII alma mater was forced to play one of these kinds of teams when their opening day opponent bailed on them at the last minute and coach didn't want his guys to miss out on playing time. So we brought in the "University of Faith" out of Florida to absolutely hammer them.
I believe the score was 62-0 and if I remember right UoF never even crossed midfield. Everything about that "school" was shady and I don't even think they exist anymore.

In the games this year they all wear a mismatch of helmets with only a handful wearing these Xenith helmets with the vast majority wearing much cheaper options
The rest of those Xenith helmets probably broke or were unable to be repaired (which shouldn't cost much... although knowing BS the checks would immediately bounce).

This is Jimmy Swaggert and Jim Bakers favorite team.

The Third Commandment is often translated, "You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain." But a more literal translation could be "You shall not CARRY the name of the LORD your God in vain." That would definitely expand the scope of that commandment. When thought of that way, hypocrisy IS blasphemy, full stop.
I pray a godly sorrow that brings repentance and leads to salvation and against any worldly sorrow that leads to death.
Bishop Sycamore reminds me of my Mother's "company softball team". They were a company softball team in name only. We were supposed to have a practice, but it was cancelled because they didn't want to have a practice. It was like they were required to field a team to participate in the company picnic.
Lol I would rather commit suicide than participate in a company picnic
9 minutes of utter demolition. Quite the excellent vid UT!
Also, I feel like the trio running this team are pretty much the football equivalent of The Producers.
As if Fyre Festival wished upon a star and turned into a football team.
The fact that ESPN got conned to such a degree is legendarily hilarious.
Worldwide Leader in Sports, my ass.
What's even funnier is that some apologists (Yes, I'm not kidding. They exist) are defending ESPN by saying that they couldn't hire investigators or spare time... An ex-NFL star and RUclips shitposter put more time into investigating this shitshow than the world wide leader in sports news.
@@AutoArtemAuto That’s complete bullshit (from the apologists) because a simple Google search is enough to tell you about BS
@@AutoArtemAuto Oh I believe it. These are probably the same folk that swear ESPN can do no wrong.
@@AutoArtemAuto Trust me when I say ESPN actually broadcasting that scam is a whole new low for them… and I thought they had already crashed and burned in the past.
Lol yeah I heard that apparently ESPN raised it with the marketing company when they weren't able to verify the "school's" claims on their "highly recruited players" and the marketing company basically said "too late, we already signed the contract" and ESPN just went with it??? Like you're a multi-billion dollar company and you don't have lawyers capable of getting you out of a shit contract??? Let's be honest, they didn't want to cancel showing the game and all of IMG's big-time recruits, so despite all of their protestations to the contrary, ESPN was without question fully complicit in this whole debacle.
It’s wild how no one is really going at ESPN for airing it.
It's weird because nobody would be talking about this if it wasn't for ESPN airing it. Maybe it was a 5D Chess move by ESPN? Or they lucked out.
It’s not their fault it’s the marketing team for ESPN if you’re mad at anyone be mad at them
ESPN doesn't arrange these games. Paragon Media does. You think ESPN is checking eligibility for every high school and college out there? Come on.
@@coolbreeze2.0-mortemadfasc13 for the few high school games a year that they show? Are they that lazy and worthless that they can't check out a handful of high schools that they show? Lol its freaking espn, they are have the employees and money, yet are about as organized as bishop sycamore, and you are sticking up for them? You need to get it together.
This story never gets old
Never XD
@@DEANDRE_DTSfunniest part is every play from bs was a play off of madden
Hey I hoped you watched the BS Doc. I hope you do a new video of it
The “high school” that duped ESPN
That head coach belongs in prison for the shit he put those kids through.
Craziest part about this....it still feels like we have only reached the tip of the iceberg, just showed my Mom this. As a high school teacher who isn't exactly a fan of AAU basketball (basically pay for play, and don't have to worry about Academics as long as you have the cash) she was quite pissed.
ONLY the tip of the iceberg? When the Titanic sailed the seas in 1912, they seriously underestimated the tip of the iceberg!
I hate schools like IMG which are basically minor league teams for college sports.
Can't wait for the 30 for 30 documentary.
It’s already been one year since this incident. Time flies by fast
and now we have likely another scam team... West Toronto Prep.
I'm glad I got to contribute even a small bit to this video by finding that old interview when Roy was mocking the feds and the church for going after him and for finding that video of the "practice" that Uche proceeded to bash on Twitter upon my bringing it up.
This video was great and I hope it gets spread around. It deserves to be seen.
The fact they played espn like a fiddle is the most mind boggling to me
This is one of the channels that let lavar ball on tv
This is the same channel that employs Stephen A "I hate Shohei Ohtani because his English isn't very good" Smith. This doesn't surprise me.
This is the same channel that has a crappy overhyped awards show no one watches. Oh and the WNBA.
@@philly_sports1558 And then they are getting rid of Kellerman from First Take. I’m not saying Max has great takes or anything but I’ll easily take him over SAS.
My best guess is that they were blinded by money, but look at Bishop. the last thing they have is Money, or at least money to spend.
We always love a 222-0 reference 🤩
"This is a f***ing stick-up!"
Somehow, this is the funniest part of this video to me. Truly the mantra of young kids influenced by the word of the Lord. Amen.
Time stamp?
@@GoOnTags Go to 9:00 and play from there.
I honestly thought the whole "ESPN got fooled into accepting a fake team" had been an elaborate rib just to take the piss off the ridiculously complex American school sports scene.
The whole fact it boiled down to charlatans using religion to try and scam people is just depressing.
And religion isn't?
@@ATEC101 It's not a vary large number involved are true believers who do tons of charity and stuff. And your terrorist extremists are true believing disdainful of making money more than that needed to fund their attacks after all they willing to die for the cause they not in it for the money.
Of course people who scam the true believers go way back.
Person who started Buddism a Prince who gave up his riches from the stories which in this should be trusted hard to fake being a non existent prince in those times.
Jesus, a cult of personality has to have a leader who will name the movement after themselves there was a Jesus, was executed and lived in poverty.
And I can go on and on.
Thinking religion is just a scam will hurt you especially as the nut jobs especially are often so anti making money or having wealth.
Now there is one recent religion whose science fiction writing author actually was quoted on starting a religion a great way to make money before he actually went and did it. Scientology but that religion charges for teachings and works very different from the standard model of religions.
@@ATEC101 Eh, depends of the religion, not every one of them build multimedia empires, enriched their leaders and swallow up political parties in an eternal quest for power.
@@Mateus_Carvalho Geez, sounds like the Democrat party! Maybe they are a religion too?
@RedRocket4000
Could you work on your English so I can properly assess what you’re trying to say here?
Sheesh, fraud is overtaking high school football now. Just when things couldn’t get worse.
It could get worse, fraud could take over professional football too.
Uhhhhhhhhh
Well our government is built on election fraud, so naturally our sports follow suit.
THE AMERICAN WAY!
@@mitchtellers2547 lmao
Fraud took over high school football a long time. This is just how brazen it has become.
@@mitchtellers2547 By someone who could not pick one judge who would support his claims of fraud. To make your claim of fraud you have to at least explain how Trump Judges including three put on the Supreme Court and Trumps hand picked Attorney General all said there was no fraud.
Oh I know just like past voter fraud that no investigation including those ran by Trump have found in large amounts your just in on the lie their was fraud in order to rig elections in your favor. If you actually believe the fraud claims Trump is extremely incompetent and a loser why keep supporting a loser.
Cant wait for the sequel
I'd like to point out the fact that the Denver Broncos defense allowed more points to the Dolphins than a group of scrubs did to an elite prep school
