    Coach Morrell is the man, goes above and beyond for his players and truly cares up them as men more than anything else. It is clear why his philosophy is working.

    Coach barto is great. He is great at connecting with everyone. He talks with the guys about football, the girls about (appropriate) things in their lives, and loves to joke around and share a laugh with all his team. He understands the importance of learning and spends so much time asking for feedback from us as well as learning from other coaches online. Would come to his school if I could again.

    DisorganizedPassionate About CoachingPoor Communication

    If you want to be coached by a good overall dude with a great personality + lacking communication skills + clearly highlights that many priorities that come above coaching, this is your guy. He cares, but not enough to really work on his communication so his athletes respect him.

    Great Coach. He cares about each and every one of his athletes and as long as you show up and give every single practice your all, that’s what matters to him. He is a strong believer of making sure we have trust in our training/coaches and the results will show.

    He is such an amazing coach and pushes you. He may not coach like everybody else but he accommodates for what we don’t have at our school and produces quality athlete. The average improvement among the team in every event has been unreal and he does an amazing job. He makes sure all of us are doing well in school and that we have a community on and off the field.
