Audio of a coach talking about Darryl Overton and Hayfield Situation

[Phoebus Fan]

Rumor is this is South County’s head coach. This is absolutely disgusting to hear this type of talk about the situation. We can all agree that the transfer numbers were outrageous but comparing him to a child molester and gang leader is just down right crazy.

Definitely Gerry P.

What’s crazy it’s some cats on here and out there that will agree with this.

Video seems to be private now. What did the person say that was objectionable?

I had heard some reference to racism allegations a couple weeks ago, but hadn’t heard anything to substantiate the claim.

It's pretty bad.

Gross. There’s plenty to criticize without having to go into that level of hyperbole. Why is it being reported as “unidentified coach”? Do people not know who coached at Lee in 99-00?

The school district needs to handle this asap with pannoni with some type of action

I don't know Coach Overton, but he surely doesn't deserve this type of stereotype. Believe me there is a huge difference between recognizing athletic talent and giving a child a chance at a future and a "OG" recruiting gang members. Not even close. Certainly a horrible comparison regarding child molestation and grooming. This borderlines on unsubstantiated slander. If the speaker is a Coach he needs to be reprimanded or fired quickly. I personally applaud Coach Overton for giving kids a chance and structure through football. He just needs to play by the rules.

Yep very true. I’m sick of cowards thinking they can say anything with no consequences

I guess they might be keeping a low profile and not saying that stuff right now, but I’m not seeing those type of comments on here.

These are the unsubstantiated attacks that some posters felt were going on behind closed doors regarding hayfield. A black man leading a program to be successful in an area where people don’t look like him begins to foster these crazy outlandish sentiments. I guess yall wonder why the Superintendent said there was racial overtones in the conversations surrounding hayfield and yall said she should be ashamed and have egg on her face. What was the phrase where there’s smoke there’s a fire and I’m pretty sure this amounts to a more than a faulty smoke alarm.
