    Old School MentalityPoor Communication

    Poor communicator. Unresponsive. Horrible team culture. Losing mentality and culture for team. Not concerned with academics at all. No academic advising. No summer training/workouts. Coach is just there, no coaching, no mentoring, no comradery with players.

    Horrible coach who has lied to me and many others. Team lacks diversity and gives cult vibes. Seriously/heavily recruited players and extended offers just to wait for them to move on campus to and change his mind forcing them to miss an entire season. Forced girls to bully new teammates so badly so they would quit. (What psychological hold do you have to have on your players for them to do this willingly?) also then lied to the volleyball community about his actions and tried to blame it on other players. Also his asst coach acts like a mean girl from hs and tries to live vicariously through her players probably because she was never noticed in hs. Besides that team has a winning culture but you would definitely sacrifice your college experience. Campus is horrendous and is in the middle of nowhere.
