    Samantha Jones is not suitable to coach softball, let alone division 1 softball. The culture she brought, continues to bring is completely dreadful and miserable. She doesn’t know how to properly, professionally coach. She constantly screams, cries and be negative to all players. There has been times where she brings her kids to her division 1 practices and failed to conduct a professional, important practices. She has questionably violated many NCAA rules regarding recruiting, practicing and team money and team meals. School gives the softball players money for away games and for games/practices while on break and she takes all the money instead of allowing the players to receive the money so they can eat themselves. She tortures them with the amount of food she “buys” and allows them to have. She has made that softball program a disaster (hence her win/lose record since she’s been there) and the players simply do not enjoy playing softball anymore. The president and athletic director of morehead state won’t listen to anyone about her inability to coach. She honestly doesn’t have the mental capacity to be a good, professional coach. Something needs to be done.

    This coach has destroyed the passion and love for the game from every player she “coaches” and I use that word loosely. She doesn’t care about the girls only her best interest in mind. She barely comes to practice and doesn’t elicit extra hitting/batting practice from the girls (the girls get together themselves). The environment she produces is toxic and very degrading upon the girls. She puts them down but never builds them back up. This is not about playing time or winning/losing, this coach has taken what supposed to be a very memorable years of playing D1 collegiate softball and has ruined it. She buys reduced and clearanced out food she sticks in the cooler for the girls to eat versus having nutritional protein healthy foods for the girls. Let’s also not forget instead of giving them meals on the way home from games they have to eat out of vending machines. This can turn into a novel of sorts but I’ll keep it short and sweet and just say if you have any interest of coming to Morehead State to play softball wait until she’s gone!!! Which by the way is a great academic school and the campus itself is awesome but not this softball program while Samantha Jones is head coach.

    Horrible coach; cancerous culture, with bullying and intimidation; she doesn’t show up for team practice, she doesn’t coach up or provide instruction, she doesn’t even live in Morehead; she has the people skills of Attila the Hun: do not come to this program while she is here
