"When playing for kirk it was a horrible environment. I thought I could trust her and went to her to talk about my mental health. Later down the line her and the head coach used it against me. I also quickly became a target at practice. I was sat out during multiple practices with no explanation. I also was called out in front of the team many of times, putting a target on my back. Playing for her was overall not a good experience. It was consistently negative and there was no positive feedback. If you are looking to play for her be aware, at the start she started nice until all of a sudden something changed and it was like the team was walking on eggshells. "
"Potential athletes please be aware of Coach Kirk. She has been at 3 schools in as many years. She left Furman right before the season started and left Xavier after 1 season and now is at LaSalle. She is not kind to her players, very degrading and pits players against each other. She does not motivate her players and takes all of the joy out of the game. "
"I’m sorry but did no one do their homework on this coach?! These girls don’t deserve this for their college athletic experience. Zero empathy, nasty negative reinforcement, and mental manipulation that young athletes cannot and should not be dealing with. These young women should be supported and work hard playing the sport they love. "
"What we thought would be a great experience turned out to be the opposite. A master manipulator and a dream killer for these young athletes from start to finish. Heartbreaking to watch so many young women be treated so poorly - what a shame to watch this treatment be repeated at school after school. "
"We are relieved this coach is no longer with our program. Manipulation at its best and not a positive or supportive environment for female athletes. "
"I have known Kirkland for a number of years. She was never all conferences during her playing days but she is a student of the game, more importantly she loves the game. I wish her well landing another head coaching job in the future. "
"Watching from afar, Coach K on game day was intense. She was building a culture at Furman but didn't have a chance to see it thru. She believes, the way you practice earns playing time. Coach K will do well in her next stop. "
