"Misleading and overpromises! Recruits WAY to many guys every year. Guys may not make it into the portal, but as a D3 - you can just transfer out to a different program if you like, but some just quit soccer. The guys do NOT respect him at all - In fact most think he is a joke. I thought he cared about his guys, but as time goes on, he does not give it what he did when he arrived. The culture of the program is declining. HE only cares about winning only - not the players and they feel this. Players get NO training gear - they must return shirts and shorts at end of the season, I mean come on - this is college!?!?!?!"

"Let me first say that Coach Laux is a great recruiter! He really makes a player feel special during the recruitment process. He was communicative at that time. He made our son feel very important - like he was THE main player he was trying to recruit and would be his #1 incoming Freshman, even promising him a starting spot as a Freshman. I was present for these conversations so this isn't just a kid hearing what he wanted to hear. My son felt that this was his opportunity to go somewhere he was wanted and would play. Coach even drove 2 hrs to see my son play at high school games. Constant texts to my son that he hoped he would choose Macon! Fast forward to the Fall of this Freshman year, little to no communication to my son about his playing time or why he was not playing, let alone starting. When my son inquired what he needed to do to earn his time, no real answers were provided. In speaking with other parents of teammates, it seems this is the coach's move. Recruit strong, promise the world, then hope they stay. It is like he keeps kids on stand-by in order to have a strong practice squad. He definitely has favorites and plays those players without trying to help the others continue to improve. Needless to say, there is quite a bit of turnover with him. "

"Top level coach who can develop players. Excellent understanding of tactics. Cares about his players on and off the field. Took over RMC in 2015 and inherited a program that was habitually bottom of the ODAC and consistently missing the conference tournament. Has won close to 100 games since taking over which is close to double the amount of wins the program had over that same period before he arrived. Coach Laux is a players' coach and a master at developing personal relationships. He has rescued RMC soccer because the program was in shambles before he arrived. Needs more support from the administration to take program to that next level. The team has a nice locker room but the field is a mess and rumor has it financial aid is inconsistent year to year. 5th year seniors at competing schools hurt a little because RMC does not have grad school but the program continued to have winning seasons despite having very few 5th years. The guy is a workaholic and gives the program everything he has. He also graduates players and has had almost zero players in the transfer portal. Top notch coach and person. Needs more support from top down . "

"Personally creates a divisive atmosphere among team Team generally does not respect him . Does not maximize playing opportunities in the spring In ability to handle his 40-44 field player roster Undisciplined team In the field no consequences . Misuses talent cannot coach in the mid or front third. No exit meetings with players in spring or fall . Has had talent but hasn’t won a playoff game in five years and last season did not make pLayoffs Most kids are good kids on this team and they work hard but sometimes coaches mistake activity for achievement "

"Misleading. Too many recruits every year. Disappointing. "
