These comments are so validating ! I never really know if people think she’s a good coach or not , but watching this poor team play it’s so frustrating and you just think how can people keep supporting this? It’s D1, ACC and Skiera is so out coached by even the very low ranked conferences . She is HORRIBLE!! Any positive review on here is probably her dad. Even the coaches dislike her and are leaving . So many on here have summed it up perfectly -Narcissist!! Mean Girl! Horrible game management!! Abusive! The list. Is endless ! But I have to let the people know who are saying it’s probably just an upset parent that is mad their kid didn’t get play time .. NOPE!!!!!!! Do your research - this team lost so many players that she played constantly, but NEVER coached them to be smarter or higher IQ. She doesn’t know how to coach or run a practice . So many of those players that she was obsessed with LEFT!!! They got tons of play time , they got recognition, etc. why would they leave if they were playing or getting her “favoritism”? She’s clueless… timeouts for her are useless , girls shooting 30 Shots and making a couple goals were never taught how to figure out when to shoot and when to pass. There were players that transferred and reminded how to actually play the sport . Defense is awful!!!! They get burned and no one takes accountability and coaches don’t know how to adjust. Positive side is Virginia Tech is a great atmosphere, a great education , and a beautiful area. She has many players that put up with her because they have family support and common sense . You graduate and move on. It’s sad because she doesn’t deserve to be there, all you have to do is look at any game she has coached . So many people have said even the male coach before her that was let go was better than her. The team competed and at least showed they were better than low ranked teams and the girls were close and supported each other. She turned it into a mean girl sorority. I guess we could all go on and on about how terrible of a human she is , but people saying only families complain because their athlete wasn’t chosen .. YOU ARE WRONG! VT deserves to have a good program !! No one is expecting to win it all every year , but there have been some great players that she destroys and seem to forget how to play the game because she’s just that bad.
