"Track and field for women has a tendency to be tough on the appearance of their athletes. This happened with this coach as well. This coach referred to athletes having "thick leg syndrome" & some athletes began to have negative body images of themselves. Which this resulted in obsessive weight loss and decrease in performance. Instead of checking in on athletes that this was noticeable with, he continued to push them. I believe more college coaches need to be aware of body image disorders."

"Things to note: He coaches all events, so sprints, jumps, hurdles, pole vault, and high jump. This can be frustrating because he can not allocate time to every athlete and he isn't open to having multiple coaches. He is very religious so there are times when his religious beliefs interfere with his comments, which can be offensive and hurtful. He has a good attitude about training and stays positive but I would say he is a little behind on the times in regards to running/sprint workouts."

"If you are a student who aspires to be a professional athlete, this coach is not for you. He coaches the entire track and field team by himself with one throwing coach. i have known of individuals who offer to volunteer their time to coach but he kindly declines. I was often left to coach myself on many occasions. He comes off very aggressive but overall, he is a nice christian man who cares about his athletes and wants them to succeed outside of track and field."
