LETTER: Southern Nevada high school football coaches take a page from ‘equity’ playbook.
Bishop Gorman’s Micah Kaapana (22) runs the ball to score a touchdown past Desert Pines’ Malik Stinnett (10) during the second half of a Class 5A playoff football game at Bishop Gorman High School on Friday, Nov. 4, 2022, in Las Vegas. (Chase Stevens/Las Vegas Review-Journal) @csstevensphoto
The proposal from Nevada high school football coaches to limit state teams to only one out-of-state game must be a cut-and-paste from the woke “equity” playbook. (Tuesday Review-Journal). Unbelievable. I often think of all coaches as high achievers. Evidently, in America 2023, I’m wrong.
Let’s bring down excellence on the field by imposing a lower level of achievement (mediocrity) on Bishop Gorman. That’s disgusting. Maybe coaches will be able to make game decisions so each team in the conference will end the season with a 5-5 record.
I suggest Nevada high school football officials eliminate the state championship playoff and give participation medals to all of the student athletes who came out to play football.
