I appreciate it. I think it definitely would make great TV to watch the kids grow up on the field. I’m sure there’s some great back stories that would lead to redemption stories. I’m a big Wrexham fan and this would definitely have that same vibe. That is if they start scoring some points. Nobody’s gonna wanna watch these kids get blown out by 60 every week😂.

I did not know about the documentary but now I’m gonna check it out. I’m sure I’m making much ado about nothing. To the web sites credit though, they did have a ‘23 roster also during their scrimmage season. So they have had time to properly give credit where credit is due but I’m also sure you’re right that some IT dude was tasked with this and maybe even a student. I know if I was tasked with it though, I’d want it to be as accurate as possible to properly give these kids their recognition. That’s just the perfectionist pride I take in my own work. I don’t carry that into any other parts of my life. Work takes it out of me😂.
If only every IT guy had your work ethic.......

It would definitely make great TV, but I might also enjoy watching it to see the kids just get their ass kicked every week. Like the reverse of Rudy.

And you gotta watch it! It is so worth the time spent. Gave it a whole new light. I loved the dude who was the investigator for the Ohio High School Athletic Association, or whatever it is. He was just appalled and in horror about this before anyone even knew about it.
 
It's very possible. There are tons of kids who want to play college ball but don't have the talent, even for the NAIA level. There also could be kids who never even played in HS because they were cut every year. I grew up in a pretty small town and even we had kids like that in bball. If any of them got a call from a CBB coach, they would jump at the chance.

I think I've asked this before, but it's kind of related: Has anyone heard of parents/players "buying" PWOs? Like, I'll see some kid whose only offers are from places like Whitworth or Willamette and then he signs with Florida (or some big program) on a PWO. My conspiracy theory is that those PWOs are purchased with the understanding that he'll never see the field, but the kid can hit the portal with the big-name on his resume. IDK, it just seems strange. Sorry for the tangent.
Ohh, great question. I have not heard of that before but based off your description, I’d say you’re spot on. There is definitely more there hiding in the shadows.

He's right. Definitely watch the Bishop Sycamore doc.

Like the ESPN Big Buddies commercial or the Peyton Manning SNL United Way skit😂.
