Coatesville OC Reportedly Drawing FBS Interest
Coatesville Red Raiders offensive coordinator, Matt Hates, a 7-year veteran of the program, is reportedly fielding offers from multiple FBS programs. Hates has been instrumental in the Raiders' success, helping the team to a 43-13 record over the past five seasons, including a 2022 PIAA Class 6A semifinal appearance. His departure would be a significant loss for the program, as he's credited with developing quarterback prospects who have gone on to play at the FBS level. The Raiders' 2026 season is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated in the Chester County League, and Hates' potential departure could have a ripple effect on the team's recruiting efforts. The FBS offers are believed to be from Power Five programs, but the names of the schools have not been disclosed.
