DO to St. James Academy

He’s going to get his pick of any kid he wants in NoVA and it’ll be legal. Overton without question has the best resources and facilities in the state. St. James is basically IMG Academy in VA (still developing of course).

Realistically how long do you think it will take for them to field a team? And will they join a private league or stay independent? Not a fan of privates but I gotta admit I would like to see Overton build something nice and legit with this.

People speak on the situation as if he was over at Herndon or Annandale or Westfield, etc recruiting their kids. Not one leaked DM from a coach “recruiting” a player from another school. He’s got free range now. NoVA football is very bleh as a whole. There’s good football up there, it’s just few and far between who can compete with the 804 and 757 powers.

You gotta think most of that Hayfield team follows him plus all the kids he has in his youth league program. St. Michael’s really just hopped on the scene and played basically anyone.
