"Players beware: If you are injured during a season, you will be cast aside and cut from the roster. Injured players are treated like bottom feeders, and the staff does not go out of their way to help them rehab. There are reasons why two coaches and numerous players have left in the two years Devin has been the Head Coach. He's so desperate for players that the majority of his recruits are on their second and third schools. Devin has zero empathy for anyone except himself and his fake image. Has anyone ever wondered why, after YEARS, the players' benches were moved to the other side of the field? Out of the view of ESPN cameras and out of earshot of the fans? Or why has he left so many schools? He can play the victim card all he wants, but he cannot hide from the truth."

"RMU has been a very positive experience for our daughter and our family. From our perspective Coach Grove and her staff has taken a genuine interest in the well being of our daughter and her teammates. I can't imagine that any team or coach that has to manage 30+ girls and their personalities is perfect, but we have been very pleased with the dedication, passion, and accesibility of the coaching staff. This team had a very large freshman class and it appears that every girl is returning as a sophomore which speaks volumes about the positive culture that has been created at RMU. I feel Coach Grove and her staff care about my daughter and has taken a genuine interest in her well being on and off the field which is very important to me as a parent. Playing time and not always agreeeing with every coaching decision that is made on the field is all part of the "game" and not something as parents we can get overly involved in at this level. The coaching staff is dedicated to their players, has recruited well (4 freshman all-conference players this year), and expects the best of their athletes. "

"I believe that she has always shown how much she believes in the team she is coaching and how dedicated she is to making the team successful. I think people need to understand sometimes a coach is doing what is best for the player and the team even when it is hard. People struggle when coaches hold them accountable or to a high standard but that just means the coach cares about you and knows what you are capable of. I believe if Coach Gail was to stay at Furman she would be able to lead them to their first conference championship. She already proved what she is capable of by leading Furman to their most successful season in history her first year with the program. I think the Furman athletics department needs to realize no matter what coach you hire some players will not like everything they do, but that does not mean they deserve to be fired. Overall, I hope to see Coach Gail be successful at another lacrosse program because she gives her all no matter where she is and still remained professional even when things did not go her way. At the end of the day sports are supposed to be competitive and challenge your toughness, so if you are not able to handle that you should not be playing a college sport. It is unfair to coaches to be fired for simply wanting their team to be successful. Coach Gail truly cared about her team and players more than many of the coaches I have ever seen. "

"Whether she chooses to acknowledge it or not, Maness bears direct responsibility for the physical, mental, academic, and athletic well-being of her players. Leadership culture is not abstract; it materially affects athlete retention, performance, recovery, morale, and long-term outcomes. In this case, the evidence suggests a systemic failure in all of those areas. Neither the coach nor the Athletic Department has demonstrated a meaningful commitment to supporting student-athletes beyond the minimum operational requirements. The disparity in institutional investment is difficult to ignore. One can reasonably conclude that sports generating greater revenue receive substantially more protection, resources, and oversight, because if every program operated under the same conditions as KSU Women’s Lacrosse, the athletic department would not be sustainable. It is also difficult to ignore the sheer volume of injuries within the program. At some point, repeated injuries stop looking like bad luck and start raising legitimate questions about player management, conditioning, training methodology, recovery oversight, and overall coaching competency. The pattern strongly suggests a lack of knowledge and leadership in areas critical to athlete health and performance. The new trainers, therapists, and support staff appear to be doing everything possible within the limitations imposed on them, and frankly, they are the only reason some athletes remained in the program at all. However, support personnel cannot compensate for leadership failures indefinitely. The core issue is administrative accountability. The Athletic Department has failed to establish or enforce meaningful performance and leadership standards for this coach. As a result, mediocrity has become institutionalized. Until personnel and cultural changes are made at the leadership level, KSU Women’s Lacrosse will continue to underperform competitively while failing the athletes it is supposed to serve. "

"If you're looking for a “pay-to-play” recruiter, Andy is probably not your guy. But if you want someone who will be honest with your child, set realistic expectations, and help your family navigate the process, he absolutely is. Andy takes a straightforward, honest approach. He has strong relationships with college coaches, provides thoughtful guidance throughout the process, and serves as a trusted sounding board for both athletes and parents. The reality is this process is not easy! If it were, everyone would do it. There are a ton of factors involved that families often don’t see: graduating classes, transfer portal movement, international recruiting, roster limits, timing, exposure, and simply being the right fit at the right time. The odds are not automatically in your favor, which is exactly why having someone honest and experienced helping guide the process matters."
