"Seemingly has no idea what he’s doing. Never seen a team have more injuries and hardly any production or output. Preaches a false sense of motivation only never to act on it when the team actually needed it. Communication is very poor. Often didn’t know what the practice schedule was like until hours before practice. "

"Terrible Coach, doesn’t know how to coach, creates and hosts a toxic environment, incredibly petty and lacks discipline and true leadership. Very quick to turn on you when things don’t go his way, and will try to make sure your career dies at UNI. Do not recommend him or the poverty program. "
