    Poor Communication

    Loses the lockeroom every season, horrible people’s coach, and extremely toxic environment with the assistants. Do not commit here at all if you want a good consistent college career.

    I got sexually assaulted by another swimmer on our team and he did nothing. He is a selfish, egotistical a*****e who only cares about himself. Doesn’t give a f**k about his swimmers.

    Poor Communication

    Coach Griffin doesn't invest the time to communicate with all his players and doesn't give them the on-going feedback they need to develop organically. His attention span is extremely limited and at the first mistake players make, instead of taking the time to mentor and coach them, he pushes them away, killing their self-esteem. He doesn't care about players beyond his starting 11 and just a handful more. All the others are literally on their own and getting humiliated in front of the team by his behaviors. His changing coaching jobs so frequently speaks volumes about his inability to invest in players long-term and make connections. He is a good coach technically, but very bad emotionally and in the ability to make connections with players. He doesn't inspire his players and doesn't motivate them.
