Every review warning families about this program should be taken seriously. The reality is worse than I ever could have imagined. Eric seems like a genuinely kind person, but being a good person is not enough when you are entrusted with the safety and well-being of young athletes. Whether through silence, avoidance, or an unwillingness to intervene, he has allowed a culture where serious verbal and emotional mistreatment of players has become normalized. A coach does not get to separate himself from the environment he oversees simply because he isn’t always the person creating the problem. More concerning, however, are the player-safety issues within this program. There have been situations involving substance use, dangerous behavior, and deeply troubling conduct between teammates that go far beyond normal college mistakes or a difficult team culture. Young women have been placed in situations that could have had devastating consequences, and circumstances that should have demanded immediate intervention and accountability appear instead to have been minimized, ignored, or handled quietly. I am intentionally not sharing those details publicly because they involve the privacy and experiences of individual athletes. But parents and recruits deserve to know that the concerns surrounding this program extend far beyond playing time, harsh coaching, or whether a team is winning. They involve the most basic responsibility a coaching staff and university have: protecting the young women entrusted to them. I don’t know where the institutional failure ultimately lies, whether with the coaching staff, athletic department, university, or some combination of all three. But silence is also a leadership decision. When serious behavior is known and nothing meaningful appears to change, those in charge have to be held accountable for the culture they allow to continue. Unless there is significant change, I believe this program is heading toward a reckoning of its own making. If you are an athlete or parent considering coming here, I strongly encourage you to look elsewhere. There are programs where athletes can compete at the highest level, be held to extraordinarily high standards, and still have their dignity, mental well-being, and physical safety protected. No athlete should have to sacrifice those things for the privilege of playing the sport she loves.
