Derek Sapp comes off as an approachable coach during the recruiting process as a young head coach, but his age definitely shows in his ability to coach or lack thereof. He cares a lot about his swimmers, but sometimes seems to confuse his care for his swimmers, and his care to keep his job. He was the assistant coach for a few years before eventually being promoted to the head coach making him the youngest head coach for swimming and diving in the NCAA at the time. His practices are simple and swimmers that come from an intense swimming background in HS seldom get faster because there is no thought that go into the practices, nor is there room for them to ask for change, because trust he will not part his own ways because of his so called "philosophy." Seton Hall should stop with the inside hires and start fresh with something new because there aren't going to be any new Big East team titles any time soon.
