"Instead of focusing on getting better players on that team are constantly stalking and talking about past players. What is sad is this stems from the head coach directly."
"Kera has graduated players write letters of encouragement to the new players. They are read on a regular basis. The graduated players come back and play in the alumni games for years. "
"Kera is a phenomenal coach!!!!!! She is accessible to her players at all times. She keeps time on and off the court enjoyable. She genuinely cares about how her players are mentally, physically, and emotionally. She strives to help student athletes develop into responsible, hard working, and respectful women. I cant say enough about her as a person and a coach. 10/10! "
"Kera is an unbelievable person. The most special soul. She’s helped me thru every stage of life on and off the court since day one. She’s loyal, passionate and has a huge heart. "
"Super embarrassing when opposing teams are making post like this one https://x.com/barstoolreddies/status/1719402055301828797?s=46 of her mugshot every time we play someone. last season someone waved her mugshot up and she threatened to assault them. ATU & Abby Davis never did anything to hold her actions accountable. Kera can’t own up to her DUI. She sweeps it under the rug and acts like it doesn’t exist. Anytime someone brings it up she gets belligerent. Thank god these girls only have a few weeks left of this embarrassment. "
"Kera is absolutely the worst coach. Lose bad for set, start the same lineup. Lose again 2nd set, same lineup. Lose again same lineup. Doesn't have any idea what she is doing. 19 matches of doing the same thing is obviously not working. 2-21 is embarrassing. Not only should this verbally and mentally abusive coach should be fired, the AD should be fired. She knows everything that is going on, but encourages it. Please would somebody please help us. "
"players on the team are already talking about entering the portal. this season has been a lot of empty promises from coach kera. It’s so bad that players are already creating highlight reels to have on hand as soon as the season is over. Even though it is miserable for us to continue to lose games we have looked on the brighter side as a chance to be able to enter the portal earlier, so we have more time to get picked up somewhere else. "
"Kera has completely just given up on this team. she pulls the wrong players. maybe if the pins set up the block correctly your backdown players would be able to read the ball better. but no she pulls middles. this is just one of many examples as to why this coach lacks any volleyball IQ. the pins don’t set up the block correctly at all. and god forbid one of the ds/liberos has to do their job and fill a seam or actually dig a ball. "
"My daughter played for this awful program and was abused by Kera in 2021. She is one of the players Kera surely still negatively talks about. But that girl is thriving!!! It gives me GREAT satisfaction to see her get roasted for the crap job she does. She was a terrible female role model and dangerously manipulative. The troubling issue is that the AD doesn't have a backbone to do anything about it!! ATU has been aware of the abuse by Kera, yet the turn the other way because she is cheap! You know dollar-store kind of coach. GAC 2021 Championship was due to the recruting efforts of Coach Nook and a few good players who came from great programs! I wonder if ATU sees it now? Probably not....maybe the whole institution is dollar store quality.
Advice to future recruites.... take all the scholarship money you can! They do full rides all the time!! You just have to push back, look at her options. ATU has the funds to pay for your education, housing and meals but dont expect to have a positive or WINNING (LOL) experience. HA!"
"if this coach is not fired after the season than this shows a real deep rooted issue that needs to be addressed at ATU. We are over half way through the season and this team has only managed to win one game. what will the excuse be this season? last season her excuse was she needed to get rid of cancerous players. now what? these are pretty much all of her recruits and girls she has allowed to stay in the program and they have managed to have a poorer record than last year. Kera you are pathetic. You are the cancer & should not be able to coach young woman. You put up a front that you are this great person but, I have never met a nastier individual in my life. And it seems like the walls are finally closing in on you and your facade that you have been putting up. like they say karma bites hard. "

"I love that instead of coaching and actually working on stuff Kera has speaker after speaker come in. News flash almost every team is either mid or absolutely below mid at that school. The only people that support this place is either people that went here and just think it’s the greatest school ever. Or people that live in Russellville Arkansas. So I’m not sure people you bring in saying that this team “is doing all the right things” has any sort of credibility saying this. Considering the fact your football team sucks, and every other team is mid in the worst conference in D2 college sports. People just live in their own little bubble because it’s Arkansas and no one wants to live or coach there. That is exactly why the AD doesn’t fire the volleyball or football staff. "
"I've waited a long time to post a review on here... mostly because the trauma I experienced being in this program has taken me years now to recover from and as I move into my adult life I still struggle from triggers and things that happened to me while under the "care" of Kera Dukic-Coleman. I wish I would've read past the lies and deception when she sat there and looked me and my family in the eyes at my visit and said id be safe there because my whole life was ruined... my confidence ruined... my body ruined... my love for the game is gone I do not wish to ever play or touch a ball for my own self desires ever again. I tried to self harm while in this program and am so grateful to be alive today. She attacked me and my character and I spent a whole season protecting others from her egotistical retaliatory toxic god complex personality. Sometimes the girls who never understood why the lot of us who disliked Coach Kera so much will one day when they are out from under her control that maybe she was as bad as we made her out to be. some of us just weren't as willing to play her games just to get court time or be treated like a human being versus abusing us.I mean go back and look at prior rosters she's had she's lost almost more than half of her players every year... even after a championship season she loses her whole roster to the portal. and some quit. they are 1-9 now... for tech's sake I pray they can turn it around for the better but a second single digit wins season you'd think the school would reevaluate her position at that point. what's truly best for tech here? the president just got fired lets hope some one comes in who's unwavering in their desire for this school academically and athletically to be staffed by people who genuinely want to curate a place where young girls can grow into great woman. and not that the girls who've lived and been through the trauma havent ended up being some of the most strong and amazing woman and leaders and can share their experiences to help others but man it wouldve been nice to not have all this pain and hurt for years on after... I just want Kera to self reflect... just think... maybe maybe I did something wrong too. thats all I ever wanted from here. self reflect. "
"1-9 for this season so far... Ouch. Now that I no longer play for kera I enjoy sitting back, eating my bag of popcorn, and enjoy watching her scramble. She made me feel so small as a person, a player, and a teammate. Nothing is ever enough for her. She still stalks past players too on social media, yet acts like she’s so much better than you and is above all. She’s manipulative, controlling, and a liar. She still try’s to control players by emailing future or current coaches because she can’t handle that the reason why people leave this program is because of HER! I’ll tell you ATU is a great school, has great teachers, and a great Colosseum to play in. One thing the school is missing is a great volleyball coach. Will this be another year where she sits the team down and tells them she’s gonna get fired because they aren’t winning and it’s the teams fault? Or will kera take responsibility for once and realize she’s the problem? I’m gonna assume she’s gonna blame it on the team because that’s the type of coach she is:) anyways can’t wait to tune in for this weeks matches! Best of luck to the girls truly but I will never wish Kera any luck."
"She plays her favorites end of story. And then when her favorites aren’t doing good she will throw you in third set and expects you to be huge game changer. Cycle repeats. If you aren’t her favorite don’t expect to to gain any time on the court. She will continuously play her favorites even if they don’t perform. You may be on the court one season then riding the bench next. Even when she tells you in meetings you will be playing next season and gives you more money. Don’t fall for it. "
"It’s sad to see that Coach Coleman claims she is so focused on “this” season but is viewing past players tik tok. We can literally see when you stalk us Kera. At this point make a burner account. How about we focus on that piss poor 1-7 record. So pathetic… goodluck this weekend losing every single game. "
"Already a little frustrated with how the season is starting. The girls are all very nice and for the most part coach Kera has been fine. But we had team meetings today and she acts like we don’t talk to each other after those meetings. She feeds us all the same stuff and won’t just be completely upfront with us. I have noticed is there is a review written she corrects and changes what she does. So I’m hoping she sees this and has a chance to correct it. Because no one likes to be fed lies and told the same exact thing as someone else. "
"Recruits it’s coming that time to make a tough decision. I was In your shoes once. When I took my visit to Tech & came to the camp it seemed like butterflies & rainbows. Coach Coleman tells your exactly what you want to hear, she will be overly positive with you & to anyone she interacts with. Please please please do not fall for it like I did. It was the worst semester of my life. There were points I even contemplated just ending it all. I know that seems a bit extreme but I felt like I was literally in asylum. She has such a good way of isolating your from friends and family. I am behind thankful I got out while I could. I’m sure she treads even more carefully because, if this review page. But she cannot help herself. She will always resort back to some type of narcissistic behavior at some point. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not come here. This is coming from a player that got out while they were a freshman. If you don’t don’t believe any of the reviews please just take mine inconsideration. If I could help save one innocent player from this troublesome program then I would feel so much better. "
"Kera is like a high school girl that never grew up. She is immature, and does not know how to coach a team (at any level). No amount of management seminars will help this woman be better because she is so focused on the wrong things. She CHOOSES to ignore most of her roster (she recruits heavy but only plays very few) and basically treats the girls that she chooses as royalty and as if they can do no wrong. She likes to recruit heavy because she wants to play her select few and then have a cheer squad on the sidelines cheering for the “in crowd”. Imagine how fun that was. The girls she chose to be a part of her “in crowd” were no better, they would only hang out in that crowd and exclude the rest of the team… this teams motto should literally be DIVISION. This past season our record was 8-22 or some crap like that… you know why it was like that? Because she wanted to keep her posse on the court… high school crap and no way to run a collegiate sports team. She RARELY took them off, even in preseason so if you were thinking you’d have a chance to prove yourself you don’t. She does not care about your talent, she will look lightly at that when recruiting but if you aren’t a mean girl like her then you won’t get to play in a game when it comes to it. She chose to blame the losses on this review site… not on the fact that she was playing girls that 1) weren’t cut out for college volleyball & 2) did not work well on the court together. I cannot tell you how many “meetings” we had after games filled with her chewing us out over the fact that the review site was the problem and the sideline cheer squad (the “party pit” because we’re not allowed to call it anything different) was the problem. She literally would not hold the people ON THE COURT accountable. I was dumbfounded to say the least. This program is broken, do not waste your time here. The only way it will be fixed is if this woman is fired but she won’t be because Abby Davis (athletic director) has covered for her many times. There are so many other things that I could say, but the main thing that should steer you away is the fact that she treats her team like we’re all in high school again. I’m sorry you never grew up Kera but some of us did, maybe it’s time for you to reflect and do better but I know you won’t. "
