The premise is that Curtis doesn't want to sacrifice the ability for their other programs to be competitive just for football to be in 5A. It was shown how horrible Evangel was in all other sports besides football during their 5A years. Curtis doesn't want to throw the rest of the school under the bus like that.
Curtis was a baseball power in 4A in the 90s. They might not have won a state championship in 5A, but they could have competed. Evangel competed well in 5A baseball. If the only defintion of "competitive" is winning a state title, then you can argue that only about 5 schools in every class are competitive in any sport.
If Curtis and Evangel are unable to "compete" in the other sports, then maybe they should put a little bit more effort into making those sports successful. When your sole purpose of starting a school is to win football championships, this is a side effect.

No, competitive meaning making the playoffs instead of sitting home at the end of the season. Evangel rarely did that outside of football when they were in 5A, and when they did only 2-3 times ever made it past the second round in non-football sports during their time in 5A. Go look it up on Ken Ramsey. JT doesn't want to sacrifice the other students ability to be on competitive teams just to satiate his own desires to be a top football team. And if you really think that, you've never met JT.
