Bishop Sycamore Scandal Documentary in Production By HBO

An upcoming documentary chronicling the puzzling story of the Bishop Sycamore football team is scheduled to be released in 2023, HBO announced Thursday.

“B.S. High” will tell the real story behind the fictional Columbus, Ohio-based high school and the scandal that captivated the sports world in late 2021. HBO will produce the aptly-titled documentary, which will also stream on HBO Max, with Academy Award-winning directors Travon Free and Martin Desmond Roe.

The announcement, ironically, falls on the one-year anniversary of Bishop Sycamore’s infamous 58–0 loss to perennial powerhouse IMG Academy on ESPN. The nationally-televised blowout marked the beginning and end of the program’s time in the spotlight as its legitimacy came under fire shortly thereafter, setting in motion one of the year’s most bizarre stories.
