"Danny is an awesome coach! He is friendly, funny, enjoys creating positive relationships with his players. He allows players the opportunity to create a working relationship, he has an open door policy and schedules multiple meetings with his players. His coaching staff varying personalities that round out the team very well! He can tend to be a little too nice and not love difficult conversations but he is definitely getting better at it, overall it comes from a place of care. He definitely creates a family environment and has strong emphasize on team values! Great coach!"

"I was recruited by coach, my first impression is he seemed honest and comfortable to talk too over the phone. I remember him talking abiut family and academics. Besides for a few rotten apples, not blaming coach C, coach recruits talebted players and even better human beings. I'm best friends with my entire teammates, one of which is now engaged! Secondly, I have the hardest major on campus, and coach has always put my classes first and over volleyball. I respect that coach C kept his word after three years. Good family culture and caring about classes. #goat "

"I really like Coach Daniel's style and coaching. He made us push hard but also taught us to be independent in a good way. The one thing I didn't like was whoever tried out for varsity and didn't make it, girls always complained and blamed someone else and then parents would get mad too. Good grief, get better. It's not the coach. it's your laziness. My family spent a lot of effort for me to play college volleyball, it's not a handout. A true college athlete will be lucky to have Daniel. I will miss him..❤️"

"I love coach.. i think it's hilarious how lazy players complain. Poor sportmanship players who never take accountability doesnt deserve good coaches like danny. He will do training anytime. Will spend weekend nights playing volleyball. I was nervous at first to speak to him but realized he has an older wise prospective. Do the right thing advice and loves to listen. I never go out my way to write about coaches. "
