Several years removed and a collegiate coach myself now, he is truly unequipped for the job he has. With 8 seasons at the helm, he had one good year and is back to his substandard record - very resistant to change and doesn’t like to take accountability for his role in team failure. Complaints were made for years in exit interviews to administration and they never believed players or cared about their negative experiences. Has always focused his time and energy only on the youngest and newest players that will “turn things around” for him and is not a player developer. Is very awkward in communication settings and isn’t clear about his expectations. Is fairly knowledgeable about the game but isn’t great at communicating his ideas. Cannot help you achieve his vision of what he wants your position to do - you either do it to his standard or you don’t, there isn’t much guidance on how to get there if you’re not there already. I still hear horror stories to this day of players getting swept under the rug after major medical emergencies. Little to no regard for who you are as a person. You will dedicate your life to this program for four years, and be forgotten the second you step off campus. Be prepared to be mentally broken and hate the game by the time you leave.
