Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS)
My opinion, VHSL has been trying to build a case against Overton for years. They finally had enough evidence with his move to Hayfield to issue a ban. |
I see. I was trying to see where/if Reid is actually addressing this publicly. Not sure why Reid/FCPS has taken it upon themselves to only serve the Hayfield administration and not the other 20+ schools under her purview. I get they are just covering their ass at this point, but she should have a lot to answer to when this is ends next week with a 2-yr Hayfield Probation. |
That poster has a point. That kid went transferred to south county for the sole reason of playing football. They need some type of discipline as well. |
They lost the appeal. They do not get a second one. Read the article that was a quote from when they were first notified of the ban. The investigation is complete. This is no longer speculation and BS. What's BS is the crap Overton and everyone who followed him pulled.Those boys can play at the schools they should have been going to the whole damn time. |

I think we should all start submitting FOIA requests to FCPS asking for all the information on their investigation of Hayfield and start holding them accountable.

Would like School Board to comment on amount of funds spent on this, coaches posts, chaplain’s posts and why still appealing. Only way I see Reid saving face is to sell out Overton and Principal and say she wasn’t provided all information, but since she is not doing that, not surprised if Principal and Overton both put on year paid leave and then promoted to Gatehouse. |
That kid got special consideration to transfer because he was being bullied by Overton, the other coaches and freedom transfers. |
Yeah and I hear the punishment these days is a two year ban from post season. S County shouldn’t be in this year’s postseason or next. |
Different situation. He applied to move and was approved result of bullying (that Asst Coach’s post continue to give more evidence for). This is very different from recruiting players, they transfer and then people try to make up a story after they get caught. |
Reid is a disaster at every level. Plenty of other schools in FCPS are pleased that VHSL isn’t tolerating the crap that she rubber-stamped. |

Wish they were done. VHSL made decision (letter from Billy Exec Dir). Hayfield did a first appeal to Sportsmanship Committee. They lost (today’s news story). Hayfield is now reported to be continuing to fight by appealing to the entire VHSL Board. |
| Think about the local kids who were on Hayfields team last year and had to change schools this year because they weren't needed anymore. No right. |
| Not right |
Was this asst coach (pj seilhamer) at Freedom? Do they have kid on team? Online shows him in Bristow Va. |
