"He was an awful coach and was fired after far too long. Almost unanimously hated by all of his players, Cornell intentionally created and fostered toxic inter personal relationships on his team in the name of “competition.” Hopefully he’s done coaching forever so that he does not ruin the sport for any more kids.

"This guy is a head case. Almost nobody on the team enjoyed him whatsoever, complaints everywhere. Loved mind games, made no effort to be friendly to players unless you were his go to guy. "

"Not great at connecting with his guys. Knowledgeable on X / O's for sure but doesn't bring the best out of players. Has strong biases towards players , isn't approachable by any means. "

"Players don't always agree with him but he's honest and calls it the way he sees it. Definitely cares a lot about the well being of players. Very competitive. Well respected."

"He is very understanding of college culture in a time where some coaches don't necessarily understand. He wants to the best for you, but also wants the best for his team as well, which makes perfect sense. The number one thing with Coach Cornell is honesty and integrity and it makes for a better relationship with him and with peers in general."

"Contradicted himself on all phases. Would give defensive strategy during practice, come down 15 minutes later and change everything. The one year he decided to bypass a team vote for captains, he himself nominated a captain who he eventually kicked off the team for being uncommitted.... Says he is open to honest conversations, but once you tell him how you feel (and if it's not in his favor) he rips you apart and tells you how wrong you are.His way or the highway, no suggestions for strategy."

"He was overall not a good person. He lied several times on my recruiting trip and came off as a good cosch. This turned out to be false. Very few players end up playing all four years mainly because of the coaches volatile behavior."
