He cuts kids every year so even if you go you could be cut after the school year starts. His conference win percentage is 25% for a reason. He has the talent but has no idea how to coach his athletes. If he likes you you will play every minute. If he doesn't he doesn't talk to you. The best part is he plays kids that will go games without completing a single pass and they get praised while other kids get yelled at for creating opportunities. Sometimes you think he is actually trying to lose games.

Tempermental coach who often used scare tactics to get players to listen, yelling at us (crossing the motivational line) during and after games. Clearly had favorites and was not afraid to single out players until they cried. Claimed to value mental health but when it came to personal experiences, I found it incredibly difficult to open up and trust her as missing practice would impact my playing time. We had written out tests of our playbooks and values: those that didn’t pass weren’t allowed to practice until they scored above an 80. Team culture relied heavily on drinking every weekend for team bonding. The upperclassmen were all in (academics on the backburner during season), sometimes using their power to belittle freshmen/transfers for the sake of it. They believed this is what team culture should look like, but it was an incredibly toxic environment to be in.

He was always respectful and kind but does not know how to develop a team or manage a game

Steve knows his stuff. He took me as a walk-on where I had to prove I was worthy of making the team as a slightly overweight freshman to an All-American. If you're open with the man and have regular meetings discussing your fitness and how you're doing with his training, he will work with you and you'll achieve amazing results.
