Wasn’t always easy. But he believed in me and helped me become a better athlete. Any D1 college coach is going to be tough and will gravitate to athletes they can trust to do the job. I have no doubt he had favorites and maybe some people were over looked. He worked with what he had and had to make tough decisions on how he could make the most of each athlete for the betterment of the team. I completely trusted him and knew any decision he made was what he thought was best. Though it wasn’t always easy to deal with when the results.

Manipulative, extreme favoritism, disrespectful, and arrogant. This was quite literally a traumatic experience. He gets 2 stars for the cool trips and gear we got.
