Right! The fact that FCPS admin were so supportive of cheating that VHSL had to step in and take action and then FCPS went to court over it is so simply insane.

I'm noy sure how many kids Overton brought, but it was certainly enough to raise tons of red flags. And, Reid knew.

VHSL said 30+.

I'm sure the law firm report lists how many kids.

The 2nd report which is one not being released. The 1st report FCPS paid 6 figures to have a law firm say zero problems, no issues.

$5 they don’t want to release it because it proves why kids claiming to be homeless is so damn effective with this stuff.

No one has the balls to question a kid claiming to be homeless. No one.

The numbers of homeless kids at Hayfield went from 10 to 16 (spring transfers prior to his first fall) to 22 (first full season). This is fact. Easily provable.

Absolutely insane. But no one has the balls to discuss it, challenge it, or document it.

This link is about the first or second report?

And when it says "Chicago law firm Baker McKenzie’s report confirmed that both programs violated the Virginia High School League’s (VHSL) eligibility rules in 2024, Fairfax County Public Schools Superintendent Michelle Reid announced yesterday (Wednesday)." are people claiming that means that there were "zero problems?

Remember when the School Board's favorite private practice lawyer (who they pay a thousand per hour to fight with special needs families) JUST HAPPENED TO graciously volunteer his time PRO BONO to Overton and the Hayfield cheaters to fight VHSL in court?

I wonder if the law firm report discussed that at all.

Wow! Didn't know that. That's awful. What a cause to volunteer for. Who is this firm? They should be blacklisted.

Kind of like supporting a political candidate--expecting to get something in return.

Fox 5 just had Overton on the news. He says all the kids moved because he’s the best!! Overton is a lot like Trump. Keeping lying until you drown out the truth.

Trust that no one cares what he’s doing and all focus is on how poorly the county managed it.

Is it managed poorly when we are talking about South County, Westfields, or Madison?

You are a clueless clown. NO ONE has tried to pull what Overton and Hayfield did. The DSA was proven to have knowledge when he interviewed Overton that a bunch of kids were coming with him. AND then they did and a bunch of others. But this isn’t about Overton. It’s about an administration that lied and looked the other way to avoid disciplining a black coach and principal.

Fairfax had a coach that paid the family of a a player. That’s a bigger violation than anything Overton had been alleged of doing.

Overton was never even found to have committed any violations, but we do have some other schools in Fairfax County that are currently getting athletes from outside of their schools boundaries. It was a problem when people thought Overton was doing it.

The year Overtons team was pulled, another team with a suspect roster took its place representing Nova in the championship, and that team continues to have one of the stronger football programs in Fairfax County. Now all over the county we are seeing schools with kids from outside the school’s zoning boundaries in order to boost their football, Lacrosse, baseball, or basketball programs. Yet we are still worried about Overton.

You Overton supporters love to throw out vague accusations but never have evidence or details. Fairfax high school was punished, admitted to cheating, and is currently being investigated. The head
Coach has been on leave all school year. Hayfield and Overton did none of that. They lied, covered up, and left town before they could be punished. Still to this day no one at Hayfield has admitted to anything.
What facts do you have that other schools are cheating? Show us the evidence. There are a few programs in FCPS that have several transfers, but those kids were vetted and cleared by the school and FCPS before they were permitted to play. Some were even get turned away. Hayfield illegally made kids immediately eligible, did no investigation to check them, and arrogantly displayed it for everyone to see. Once they complaining got too loud to ignore the county stepped in and tried to cover it up so they didn’t have to punish a black principal and coach publicly. THIS IS WHY THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION AND REPORT NOW. The public wants to know if we can trust our school district leaders to make sound and ethical decisions. The report will be embarrassing for Dr. Reid. It will say that she knew about and was told by her investigators that Hayfield was breaking rules and chose to support them anyway. Not sure if it’s fireable, but damn sure it’s embarrassing and unethical.

This is ridiculous. If they could’ve punished the Hayfield principal and coach for legit misconduct, they would gladly done so. The football team was too Black and too successful so the entire season, the white supremacists tried to stop em.

It’s called "buck breaking”. You guys stopped them from winning the championship even though there was no misconduct found. Here in the seat of the Confederacy, white supremacy is still the dominant force.

You are a racist jerk.

Address the issue of the eligibility. You don't care about the rules. You think it is perfectly ok to let adults live out their childish fantasies of being NFL coaches while destroying a HIGH SCHOOL team. You think dragging kids from all over kingdom come to play for a team when that breaks the rules is fine as long as you win. That isn't how things work. You choose to ignore the rules. You live with no integrity and destroy every positive thing that could come out of high school sports. People like you ruin sports for kids.

You have no integrity.
