BS High

On August 29, 2021, a nationally televised high school football game between top-ranked IMG Academy and unknown Bishop Sycamore High School ended with multiple injuries and a blowout win for IMG Academy. The on-field fiasco ignited a media circus as fans and audiences questioned the legitimacy of the Bishop Sycamore program and its head coach, Roy Johnson. Revealing one of the most intriguing sagas in high school sports history, BS High explores the lucrative and cutthroat world of football prep programs, the lack of accountability for large-scale fraud, and the widespread devastation of one man’s elaborate lies.
