So by tomorrow morning will there be 6 new coaches in Gatehouse jobs?

FCPS later approved the transfers of at least two former Hayfield players whose families had complained about their treatment by Overton and the newcomers.

Are they playing football at their new school? Transferred to play a sport. Where is the VHSL investigation about them.

Yes except we are factoring in the new head coach arriving at Hayfield then the players following- keep up, darling.

These kids didn't all transfer into a powerhouse school for a better opportunity- they all followed one coach into one specific school (NOT a good football school) in hopes of creating a a high-level football team. Avengers assemble in Alexandria. They proudly put it into a youtube video that mysteriously disappeared once that pesky ole “proselytizing “ word popped up and was defined. Oops.

This is not hard- why are people struggling with this

Unfortunately, nobody told these kids that they are not allowed to transfer to Hayfield for just athletic reasons

They were probably listening to the VHSL director.

“Winning breeds winning,” Haun said. “Parents and kids sometimes want to change to change schools because school A is winning more than school B, and the parents are willing to move their residence so their kid can transfer.

“There is nothing illegal about that and every state deals with the same thing. We can’t tell parents where they can move to.”

You said it in your first sentence. They transferred to escape alleged mistreatment . They didn't transfer to try and win a kids trophy (CRINGE) .

They transferred away from the winning school due to alleged mistreatment.

Im convinced some of these comments are purposefully obtuse. Making a statement then confusing yourself is W I L D

I had to share the highlight of my day when the Hayfield dad who helped hire the Hayfield coach compared him to Ted Lasso. I haven’t laughed so hard in weeks…

“Coach Overton does amazing things. He's created a community and a family. He brings people up and helps them out. He's good for the kids. He's good for the school. Everybody is missing the good parts of this. This is more of a Ted Lasso story than it is a nefarious story."

If they refuse to simmer down and play in the postseason? Interesting.

Who are we fooling?

Hayfield proselytizes. (May the mighty Lord inflict flames of vengeance upon Hayfield nation!)

If that's the case lodge a complaint. Everyone says everyone else did it...so in so does it...THEN SAY SOMETHING who can do something about it. Overton messed with the wrong parents and here we are.

Yessir. Here we are. #Hayfieldby40 We be playing, we still winning, y'all keep crying.

You don't realize how badly your comment makes you look. Parents within your program have publicly admitted they violated rules and you are bragging about winning. As per usual, it is the Hayfield players who suffer because they clearly have no intelligent, moral, decent adult role models to look up to.

What parents have come forward, they are of an adult age so don’t have to be “protected” where are these things where are the fb posts twitter rants and the like, I’m sure someone would have screenshots of these alleged actions. Otherwise it’s propaganda and fake news

They do and were shared with VHSL. FCPS would have too if they did investigation they said they did.

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.

I wrote Aziz sucked as a coach, sure he won games in a weak national division, but in 3 years what was his record against any team with a winning pedigree. Don’t worry I’ll wait
Here let me help you 0 and EVERY game he NEVER won any game that mattered NEVER won any game that possibly could have secured his tenure. It’s abundantly clear YOU KNOW NOTHING about football or what it takes to be a winner, I’m sure you played the flute or something. You should clearly leave football conversation to football knowledgeable people. Enuf of you peasant, now be gone

This is one of the interviews with Freedom parents from 4 months ago when the controversy at that time was old Hayfield v new Freedom players.

Transfers due to bullying is allowed.

I am sure the fact that the bullying was from an adult employee made it easier.

How many kids did Aziz send to major D1 college football programs?

This is not going away.

How many of those coaches are Black?

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.

Both of those guys could work at Tysons Toyota.

As would the Overtons if they didn’t recruit every player within 40 miles.
