Ridiculous. My child is a 2012 graduate of Boise High, and I distinctly recall a top notch golf team and choir, among other successful extracurricular activities. BHS’s football team was always subpar. I would suggest it is POOR COACHING, not a failure of the students to focus on the sport. Many at Boise High have great academics, and actively participate and excel at extracurricular activities as well. Good riddance to him.

EDITOR NOTE–We hear those nerds also like soccer and laCrosse too.

Priorities. Imagine a world where top NFL players received $1000/game and full medical coverage. Imagine a world were the most important and highest paid people at a University were scientists and engineers.

Passing grades. Academic institution players should not be able to play in a game if unable to satisfactorily answer a random spot question or SA, immediately prior to the game, covering the prior weeks classroom content. No tutors allowed and efforts will be made to have it a genuinely random question.

No muscle compounds. Any evidence of artificial muscle growth induced by substances banned by the Olympic games shall result in lifetime ban from academic sports. Test the coaches and trainers too.

Can you believe it? A school interested in academics?
