"Patrick Ferguson is one of the worst coaches I have ever played under. I have never hated myself and soccer more in my life. When I first met with coach Ferguson he seemed like a great, well rounded coach, but he quickly proved me wrong. He is incredibly emotionally abusive, dishonest, unsupportive, negative, and he diminishes all passion for soccer when you play for him. He comments on players weight. He avoids saying hi to players on campus and ignores them. He calls players sensitive. He encourages players to say bad things about their teammates. He lacks honestly and communication skills unless you are his favorite. He does not care about injured players. He does not care about players mental health. If you play for coach Ferguson you will lose all self confidence and love for soccer. "
