Unfortunately, I do not have a lot of positive things to say about this Coach. Within just a year of swimming under him, it became blatantly obvious that his image and job title were far more important to him than the mental/physical health of his athletes. He is so confident in himself and his coaching ability that he fails to listen to his swimmers and accommodate for the needs of individual athletes. He only knows one style of coaching and is incapable of incorporating others. He consistently puts his athletes down and pits them against each other in an attempt to “better the team culture”. His actions on and off the pool deck consistently display his immaturity and pride. It has absolutely nothing to do with the mental or physical toughness of the swimmer. I saw some of the strongest athletes begin to hate the sport because of the way Coach Jeff decided to treat the team. He was hired to do one job and that was to be a good coach. He is anything but that.
