He was a terrible abusive coach to my daughter. She had eating disorders after playing for him. He's controlling and mean and abusive to his players. I would never recommend anyone play for him or anyone like him.

Old School MentalityPoor Communication

Terrible man and abusive to his male and female players. Controlling, angry, and he actually just hit his player at Sacred Heart on the bench! If he does this on live TV there is always more that happens behind closed doors. He was physically and mentally abusive to me as a player.

Cares About AcademicsDisorganizedIntenseOld School MentalityPoor Communication

Completely disorganized and dishonest, overmatched by this job despite having an extensive resume. Makes his athletes dread practices and games, plays favorites with certain players than outright refuses to consider other players despite how good they may be performing when given the opportunity. Not great at communicating with or listening to his players, frequently provides misleading information both about the game and logistically. Cultivated a team-culture of individualism and selfishness, is often rude or abrasive to assistant coaches, general managers or anyone he would consider his junior. I personally wouldn’t recommend at all.

Older coach, very outdated mindset for the sport. Little to no care for players, not motivational at all, confusing, extremely disorganized and very very difficult to work with

Bob Bertucci lives, eats, breathes volleyball and knows the sport extremely well. His ability to communicate and relate to players, however, is nil. He is very stuck in his ways and unwilling to bend.

Bob is an old school coach. When he truly believes a team can win he will do everything he can to get the team to that place. Focuses on the basics and he wants players that are all in... players that could have gone to a bigger D1 school but also want a good, rigorous academic schedule. Wants to create connection between coaching staff and players, but not all players can connect.

Bob knows his stuff when it comes to volleyball! Personality-wise, he comes off a bit harsh and stubborn, but that is something that the players learn to deal with. He is used to coaching at high-intensity programs that place more emphasis on athletics than academics. He does care about his players but sometimes does not understand how to convey that appropriately.
