"The prior review of this coach is consistent with our player’s experience. We would add that non-playing injuries are endemic on this team. What does it say about a team that has lost 7 players from one signing class, including starters, due to transfer and medical retirement? Lori has “standards” that are clearly selectively applied, and applied based on factors other than playing ability. The team culture is dysfunctional and abusive. It is shocking that, despite resources and talent, such an historic athletic program continues to tolerate such mediocre performance."
"Ohio State is a great school with a lot to offer, but I wish someone had warned me about Lori before I committed to my dream school. The culture was toxic, based off of fear and intimidation that she wished to instill into all of her players- and even some of the staff. She belittled any players and staff that disagreed with her. She frequently made public, inappropriate comments about players’ bodies, sexual history, and family relationships. She would isolate players who she did not care for and, quite frankly, bully them to quit to free up scholarship funds for incoming athletes. When staff or other players would stick up for said players, they would also be treated poorly and receive her wrath. When players are out hurt, she treats them as if they aren’t even apart of the team until they are healthy again. Lori should not be able to be in a position of power over anyone, but especially young women who are extremely malleable and experiencing independence for the first time. I strongly encourage those who want a healthy college athlete experience to look elsewhere."
