    As an athlete I never felt like coach Patchell cared, he would gossip to athletes about other athletes or coaches. Has had little success in the program as he is not a good coach and influences the other coaches. He is very old school and unsupportive when things aren’t going well which is most of the time.

    Better off as a mcdonalds employee than a coach

    I ran under this coach, and the guy walks around like he’s running Alabama football when he’s really running a glorified group fitness class. The ego and the reality do not match. He spends more time talking trash about his own athletes than actually developing them, creates a toxic culture, and then acts shocked when the team underperforms year after year. It’s predictable at this point. The amount of athletes quitting or transferring is insane — 14+ in one season alone. And the funniest part? Everyone who left instantly started running faster somewhere else. That’s not a coincidence. That’s coaching. Honestly, he’s more qualified to be a middle of the night McDonald’s drive thru worker than a Division I coach. At least there the headset yelling would make sense.

    Seems great at first on your visit, then becomes super fake after your first year. Many people have transferred out and quit because of how much they cant stand how he runs the program. Literally go anywhere else and save yourself the trouble of transferring. If being petty won conference championships, he might actually start winning again.
