Hayfield Football Coach Fired

Anonymous
It's completely unethical to hire someone you know plans to bring in "10+ new starters". Those text show that the Hayfield administration knew what Overton planned to do and they were on board with it. It also shows that Overton told them his players were coming with him which proves the case the VHSL was pushing. ALL OF THEM NEED TO BE REMOVED!! This is a clear cut case of unethical behavior and they should all be ashamed of themselves.

Hold FCPS Accountable: Taxpayers demand Investigation, Transparency, and Reparations


How can there only be 781 signatures on this petition?


Smart people know that change.org positions hold no water? Not trying to be rude, but there is a reason that the pro-Hayfraud change.org petition has nearly 1,300 signatures...they're a bunch of knuckle-draggers.

Agreed. No Change.org petition can take on the system of white supremacy. That’s not happening in Virginia.


Pathetic...pivoting back to the false claims of racism in defense of the Hayfraud cheaters. Frankly, at this point, I wouldn't have minded seeing them get punched in the mouth against Oscar Smith or James Madison.

Madison wasn’t beating them, which is a huge part of the reason gatehouse received all the pressure to stop Hayfield. I don’t even think Oscar Smith was beating Hayfield.



Oh please. "Who would beat who" has absolutely nothing to do with the decisions that were made on which timeline.
Once the texts were MADE PUBLIC, Reid had no choice but to pull the team out of the playoffs.

All the texts show were that the AD knew that homeless kids were allowed to transfer in. Maybe he knew that there were a couple homeless kids at Freedom. It’s only cheating, if they weren’t actually homeless and there’s been no proof of that.


I didn't think it was possible for someone to be this dense or willfully ignorant.

if Hayfield wasn’t a threat to beat Madison, there would be no need for a two year ban.

That’s two years Madison won’t need to worry about Overton’s team. They have two years to figure a way to get rid of him or figure something out. If Overton waits it out, there will be trouble in two years.


This is comical. Someone thinks Overton is keeping his current job/getting another job at a public school or reputable private school in the area? MAYBE he can get an assistant coaching position at a "school" like Riverdale Baptist.

Oscar Smith appreciates the white supremacists for getting Hayfield out of the way for sure.



Yet another person who cannot make an actual argument so they have to pivot to false claims of racism. Pathetic.

I think it means the ban still stands. This litigation stemmed from Hayfraud parents suing to get an injunction for this year's playoffs (which they were able to get) with the Dec 4th hearing to weigh the parents' assertions on their merits. Since Hayfraud principal agreed to voluntarily pull team out of playoffs, sounds like parents are no longer fighting the ban altogether(?)..

Those parents were probably all senior parents and therefore couldn't care less what happens in future years. Either way, that tweet makes it sound like ban for next year will still be in place. Which it should be.


Since they played a game in the playoffs this year, the ban should be reinstated to cover two full years of postseason play. This means they should be banned for the 2025-2026 and 2026-2027 seasons.

Either that or make Hayfield forfeit the Edison game and credit Edison with the win. That’s if the parents are no longer challenging the ban and it’s reinstated.

I get this in theory, but unless Overton, Thompson et. al get to keep their jobs (which should not even be considered) you'd largely just be punishing kids/coaches who had nothing to do with this by extending the ban.

Maybe you saw some texts I didn’t see. Laughing emoji’s after mentioning some players could declare homeless doesn’t show any violation. Homeless kids are allowed to go to school and they are allowed to play sports.

It’s not funny that kids are homeless, which is why I believed Fritz should be gone.

How dense are you? The laughing emojis were because both parties knew the kids weren't actually homeless.

Tell us more about these kids who were homeless at Freedom, who both happened to coincidentally become homeless in the Hayfield area, who also both coincidentallt manage to afford private AAU football training. I'm fascinated.

Are the court filings posted anywhere?

Serious question: were your parents cousins or did you down about a gallon of lead-based paint daily as an infant?

Yeah that must be it! You’ve clearly got it all figured out. Since that was all there was to it, just one athletic director who thinks homeless kids are funny, what do you think the principals motivation was for pulling the whole team? Surely he wouldn’t want the team to be punished because the athletic director laughs at homeless kids. If anything he should have been more in support of the team for having dealt with that!

I'm impressed these homeless parents of these homeless children had the time and wherewithal to file court cases. Kudos!

Perhaps legally speaking, you’re correct, but ethically & morally it is absolutely wrong in a public school environment to basically import 14 individuals from the previous season’s state championship team whilst adding a half-dozen individuals from neighboring schools (Lewis, Edison, etc) and private schools to build a “superteam” into a public school for the sole purpose of playing a sport. VHSL made their decision to ban Hayfield because of the ethical and moral misdeeds of administrators & coaches. It could ended there, but the Hayfield parents misjudged the sentiments of the general public and was closely followed by FCPS central. Everything is going to crumble as a result and I’ll be eating my popcorn throughout. If I were a parent of a child who was directly impacted by any of FCPS previous scandals, I’d be so happy that a silly thing like a foosball scandal would break the system and allow me to find the truth that FCPS buried…
