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.

Can a Va lawyer answer this ?
P.S. All the name calling/personal attacks are useless. Grow up.
That's an option! However I'm fairly confident that any judge that's not tainted and operating on the facts presented, will continue to rule against VHSL. Point blank period, VHSL dropped the ball by attempting to be a bully and not actually doing the investigation to present their findings that allowed the to justify the ban. If you couldn't produce it then, how can you produce it in the future. My theory is the VHSL planned to make there ruling, allow enough time for the proper appeals and that Hayfield would not have enough time (or resources to do anything that matters). Remember Hayfield filed the petition with 1 business day's notice. If Hayfield parents had not field their petition by the following Wednesday and was able to be heard by a judge that same Friday and the games had actually already started, I think everybody would have folded and moved on with life.
VHSL own timing made this a mess and my belief is because they knew they didn't have a strong 'legal' case. Had they had a strong case or solid findings/evidence, they could have made this same ruling at anytime starting in August and I'm pretty sure everything would be cleared up by now. However notifying Hayfield at the last possible minute and ending all levels of appeal on the very last day of the regular season, was on purpose.
Bully them? Because they enforced the rules and it hurt your little feelings? You can think and feel all you want. All this judge did was give VHSL 2 weeks to properly prepare. Everyone thinks they don't have proof or didn't do an investigation when they haven't even put anything out but a letter. The speculation needs to stop. Until Dec 4th no one knows what they did or didn't fully do.
Well if VHSL wanted 2 weeks to prepare, they hosed Robinson, they could have notified them the minute the petition was filed! Additionally, just so you know, the judge originally proposed a closer date, VHSL lawyer said, "I have to go back to my client but frankly we might not even need another date". That's verbatim out his mouth. It sure doesn't sound like he, needed 2 weeks to prepare.
Prove it. I refuse to believe anyone in this forum. Everyone keeps saying the judge said this they said that. Depending on what side you are for is how you are going to interpret what was said.
but you believe the Fairfax Times right?
The Fairfax Times reporting has been accurate since this story broke in the summer.
It appears their reporting has been spot on. That said, even if only 50% of what they have reported out is true, Overton, Reid, Thompson and all the others complicit in this should be canned. Forcing out long-time administrators, having kids lie about being homeless so they can play a game, coaches arrested for trying do do drugs with minors (and those who hired them going unpunished)...and that appears to just be the tip of the iceberg. It is all really sad.

I knew little about her until this whole Hayfield debacle began but based on that alone, you're 100% right.
