The wife of former Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten is questioning a ruling that has barred their son Cooper Witten's team from the TAPPS postseason playoffs. Jason Witten, who previously served as head coach at Argyle Liberty Christian and currently works as Oklahoma's offensive coordinator, will likely be unable to watch his son compete in the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools postseason this year.
The ruling affects Cooper Witten's high school team, though specific details of the violation or the school involved were not disclosed in the initial report. The Witten family has been prominent in Texas high school football circles, with Jason Witten's coaching tenure at Argyle Liberty Christian adding to the local interest.
TAPPS governs private and parochial school athletics in Texas, and its postseason tournaments are highly competitive. The decision to bar a team from playoffs is a significant sanction that typically follows rules violations.
