    He literally ruined soccer for me. I came from a high level successful club team. He created an atmosphere where he pits players against each other. He cared more about politics and who he liked more than fostering a team atmosphere. No soccer knowledge at all. Wish I never met the man.

    DisorganizedOld School MentalityPoor Communication

    Literally is the worst coach I've ever had. The other girls saying he is great haven't experienced other coaches that don't give playing time to people that go sit in his office and ask for it. He has absolutely no idea how to coach, doesn't know how to make a lineup, is extremely unorganized, and spends so much time researching nonsense that doesn't help us win. No wonder we never made it to the tournament. He caused a lot of mental illness on the team and makes terrible assumptions about girls and says them to other players. Oh can't forget if you meet with him he'll spend the entire time talking about other players. But if you enjoy writing essays after each game definitely come here because that's what he'll make you do, and you'll have quizzes before games. He also never changes his ways, doesn't care what advice you offer up, and believes we're not here to win lol. Do anything but come here, I hate soccer now because of him.

    Michael is top of the top. He coaches and recruits for US Soccer and has several other accolades under his belt that represents how good of a coach he is. Any player would be lucky to play under him.

    One of the best coaches I have ever played for. He really wants us to succeed on the field, but even more so off the field in the classroom and as women. He is always available to talk and knows so much.

    Michael cares about his players in every way, as students, soccer players, and women. While he strongly prioritizes winning and being a competitive team, at the end of the day all he wants is what is best for his players, whether that be related to their mental and physical wellbeing or simply what they need from his as a coach. Great man and coach

    He really cares about his players. He wants them to grow and succeed both on and off the field. He knows a lot about the game and is very willing to share his thoughts. Strong believer in positive feedback and constructive criticism. Always open to help players improve their strengths and weaknesses outside of practice. Fantastic coach.
