"Those that are praising Jeff in these reviews are those whose athletic performances and abilities lived up to his expectations as well as provided him with information he wanted to know about fellow teammates. They play his game. This man loves drama, even at the expense of the student-athletes he is supposed to be guiding. Rather than develop the athletes he arrived to he did whatever he could to drive them to quit or transfer so he could use their spot or scholarship in the transfer portal. This attitude spread throughout his coaching staff, driving out his own hires. The cuts he made at the end of season also made no sense. There’s people still on the team who should have been cut if the reasons he cut people in the first place is true. "

"I loved the sport before this man became my coach, and my only year swimming under him… I never hated it more. Creates an extremely intense, anxiety-inducing environment. Could not care less about you as a person. Only wants to win and will do whatever it takes. Couldn’t recommend less"

"Ended my swimming career 2 weeks after he started coaching. It wasn’t necessarily because of him, but when I decided to be done he did not care at all. If anything, he was happy to get scholarship money for a better swimmer. He isn’t the worst, but isn’t the best. He definitely picked favorites from what I saw "

"Failed at improving team culture, forced athletes to go over NCAA practice hour limits. Very dedicated to the sport and improving the team, but made the environment very intense to get better instead of motivating the team in a positive way. "
