"This is my softball program! I will tell you how impressed I am with your softball IQ and juice you up on your skills to get you to come and play for me. I will tell you about the other coaches I have on my softball staff to develop you. I will call you frequently before you arrive on campus. I will share all the fun softball activities the softball players experiences. When you come this is my coaching style: Grandiose, I have a constant need for admiration, I lack empathy, I have a strong sense of entitlement, and I am manipulative and displays explosive actions unprovoked. I will tell you to do X and when it has a negative consequence, I will blame you. I will not take ownership of my inadequacies because I am not self aware of who I am. I will have you practice from 4:00-7:00 and when you miss the cafeteria and you dare mention this to me, I will definitely body shame you. The body shame is my signature antic annually. Practices are a joke. My brother and I will take turns hitting balls to demonstrate our testosterone. Daily skills building, I have my own way of developing players. I will crush your self esteem until you begin to believe and question your softball skills. I will instruct you not to go to your parents or administrators. I am all powerful. I will share your personal business with the other players on the team. I will pit you against your teammates because I am divisive. Must I go on."

"Chris is NOT a coach!!! He has 12 freshmen and a couple of transfers. These young minds and spirit should not be exposed to this man!!! He will beat the confidence your daughter’s presents with, coming to Johnson C Smoking University. He will lash out at the players, say demeaning things and has no interest in the players mental or physical wellbeing. He is an immature man that suffers from short man syndrome. 2 years same behaviors you can’t hide incompetence. "

"Alert: Coach Chris initial career goal was to become a veterinarian. He really should have and should consider pursuing veterinary science. He lacks knowledge of the softball game or how to build a softball programs. He shares fractured instructions, ineffectively communicates with humans, has no ability to empathize, and is not self aware of his inability to be accountable for his decisions. He loves to point out what his players is not doing correctly; however he has no ability to develop his players. He consistently threatens his players how he is going to take or lower their players scholarships throughout the year. He is an immature, insecure, miniature dictator who projects he is a premier college softball coach. "

"Practices are a cluster. Be prepared for 4 hours of nothing to build softball skills. Now, if you want to watch Coach Chris hit and show how powerful his hitting skills.. If you like to run, while he goes to get him a meal and comes back and watch the team run for 3 hours straight without a water break. He is your COACH!!! He loves himself but his players he calls dawgs!! Why? Because he dogs players every chance he gets!!!!! He is such a ——- the players did not speak to him before, after, or during the softball banquet. Why? Year 2, I guess his coaching style is working? "

"Immature 28 year old Integrity of a mustard seed Belittles his players Body shames his larger players He has no idea what he is doing. Softball IQ -1000 It is all about him, not his players! He loves himself and blames his players when he makes a bad call. He hits for the full practice Quick to point out players mistakes and has no ability to show them the correct way to improve "

"CHRIS IS A WASTED HIRE!! 28yo HIGHLY IMMATURE DOESNT KNOW THE GAME. DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD TO THIS COACH! FORCES 22yo players to call their 28yo Coach “Sir”If they have signed Decommit right now!!! Watched a practice and SAW ONLY YELLING AND CURSING AND BELITTLING PLAYERS HAS ZERO COACHING SKILLS. Walking litigation he is!!! Looking at this team they should win but this guy IS A HORRIBLE HUMAN BEING OVERALL let alone entrust your kids to him. HECK NO DONT DO IT. ZERO SOFTBALL IQ ZERO. DECOMMIT DO NOT SEND YOUR KID HERE. I am a local coach and had players of interest and ran by to watch them and was flabbergasted to say the least!! THIS MAN IS HORRIBLE and I wouldn’t let him Coach in a Rec League!!! After talking to players from last year…..the entire team quit on him mid season. YES you read that right!! FIRST THING he will say is “I don’t have any money and wants your player to come there to play for free”. NOT EVEN BOOK MONEY!! SELFISH GASLIGHER THAT CANT COACH. NONE IN MY TRAVEL TEAM WILL PLAY HERE AND IF I were to see him recruiting at my teams games I would gladly tell him to MOVE ON no interest in you or to our school here…….School wasting money on this guy!! No hitting coach, no fielding coach, drills are not even rec ball 8u useable…..THERE IS MORE BUT I am in shock from just watching this guy and how HORRIBLE of a “Wannabe” Coach he is. THE IMMATURITY LEVEL I AM WITNESSING RIGHT NOW!!!! School may also wanna review that team budget also………looks like they don’t even have practice gear. OVERALL HIGHLY IMMATURE UNORGANIZED AND NOT READY FOR A HEAD COACHING JOB ANYWHERE"
