Ok. *shrug*

And this is the real problem in all of this...the "adults" at Hayfield just don't care about what has gone down, they just care about living out their lives through their kids' performance on a field because they've never accomplished anything of consequence on their own. What terrible examples they are setting for the kids at the school. Clearly it is a generational issue...the adults were raised wrong and now they're raising their kids wrong, teaching them it is ok to cheat, break the rules etc. It is really sad.

Mr. Winston

Who are you to judge another person’s character. What vested interest do you have in all of this? Comes off very judgmental wouldn’t you say?

No, it doesn't, at least not among intelligent people. To them, it comes off as an accurate assessment of a very sad situation - sad for the former Hayfield players who got run off; sad for the Freedom program left in ruins; sad for the rest of the teams in district because a bunch of parents, coaches, and administrators put winning above doing what is right; and sad for the current Hayfield players who are surrounded by adults who, in Trumpian fashion, cheat and lie and then play the victim.

Have had people from out of state asking about this now, based on this article.

If this ain’t the most biased article. Point blank Aziz sucked as a coach , his pass happy teams were mediocre at best, while at Falls Church yes he was able to beat some schools that were worse but never a good win vs ANY measurable other team.
If he was sooooo good he could be hired as an assistant somewhere, perhaps he forgot he’s a county employee who teaches kids first and coaches second. So him saying he fears for his job is asanine, and just because you coached at one school doesn’t mean your automatically gifted another job elsewhere.

I wish this man could sue for some of the slander he’s had to endure. But I’m also sure he feels grateful n has gratitude towards FCPS for having his back. Remember he’s a first year county employee from another county, they don’t owe that man nothing.

It seems to me to be pretty unbiased. It just laid out facts. For example, "When Aziz, a veteran coach in the area, came to Hayfield in 2021, the team had won only two games total in the previous two years. Aziz turned things around and his squad finished atop its conference, the National District, all three seasons he was at the school."

Doesn't seem he "sucked" as a coach. Also, you, yet again, prove my prior comments correct. These Hayfield kids have no decent adult role models surrounding them. It really is a shame.

I remember reading in the Washington Post in 2013 that Aziz turned around the lackluster Falls Church HS football program that was at the bottom of the Northern Region for years, the very bottom. I think Aziz went to school there in the 80s or 90s. He was definitely one of the better public high school football coaches and very much in demand. He turned losing squads into winning ones seemingly overnight.

Aziz came in when pretty much the team turned their backs on coach Hendersonville. Aziz BEST win in his 3 years in the worst district there is was MAYBE Mount Vernon and their horribly coached. So the sad song Aziz is tryna play is invalid. A principal or AD is not wrong for wanting a winning program, Aziz was not that, so they cut ties, what’s so bad or wrong about that. Coaches are hired and fired all the time and the only measuring stick they have is wins and losses. He may damn we’ll be a good man, but haven’t a good coach, simple as that.

Knocking a guy who is well-respected as a coach, educator, and a person and who is not even involved in all of this stuff that is going down right now...that's just petty and small.

As I stated, this is not about him as a man or educator, this is simply him as a head football coach. If he’s not getting it amine the AD will remove you. The most respected man in Hayfield was Roy Hill, and they found a way to dismiss/not bring him back so yes it def happens to men who are great educators and coaches, so don’t get nothing confused.

Are you the one who wrote "Point blank Aziz sucked as a coach" or the one who wrote the unintelligible line "but haven’t a good coach"?

Either way, you've been proven wrong. Take the L and go home. Overton is waiting for you to get on your knees for him.

The night before Hayfield got its injunction, the Fairfax County school board voted to extend Reid's contract as superintendent by four more years and give her a big raise, to over $424,000 a year, plus a $12,000 annual car allowance. The board cited what Reid has done for sports in the county schools while announcing the new deal.

The goal of superintendents is to maximise the number of state championship teams and also ticket sales. (Superintendents make up the VHSL board.) This is in addition to academic goals, arguably the primary purpose of a school system.

That I believe is the context, and thus the board is very pleased with her efforts regarding sports.

Ticket sales go to boosters, and are meaningless to the fcps bigwigs.

Sounds like 30 some students from one school transferred to hayfield w/the new coach? I seriously doubt that many families physically moved and there was at least a little something against the rules going on (and how did the administration not know about this/action this?!?). I’m confused as to the people defending the school and the coach.

30 kids did not transfer. 14 did (still a lot) but just how you read and repeated 30, imagine that type of rhetoric happening for 5 months.

14 just from Freedom. 5 from other schools and 4 or 5 incoming freshman. Google is your friend.

Pathetic. You hide behind the "anonymous" feature that allows knuckle draggers to post on this site and make baseless claims of racism. You are a weak, feeble, coward just like Overton. But do go with your keyboard warrior actions. That, and living vicariously (look it up) through teenagers is all you have.

What does that matter? Truly? This is not about race. Get that out of your thick skull and stop playing the victim.

Parker from WSHS and Louisville from West Potomac. 2 out of 6 is roughly 4 times the AA population of Fairfax County. But I’m betting ratios aren’t really your thing.

Not following the “racism charge”. Fairfax Times reporting has been good on this topic but this last article is not that clear at all - not sure where the Reid racism charge coming from(?)

It appears to be coming from comically ignorant and misinformed Overton supporters who are grasping at straws. It is all they have.
