"My daughter wanted to transfer to svsu. We had a lot of respect for their program until I heard the story of a former svsu player that went to Davenport. She wouldn’t hit off a tee there and was rude. She got all the freshmen drunk. Talked negatively constantly and was a nightmare from what was told to me by parents on that team. Is that the culture at Saginaw? My daughter played with svsu players and they seemed to not have anything good to say about the girl either. Said she wasn’t a team player and was a know it all with a temper. Wonder why you chose to play such a non team player? With such a talented roster going into the job. Did her dad give you extra money? Is that what college athletics is about now? Paying for playing time and calling it fundraising. People really should do their research before going into programs. I’ve heard these things from many GLIAC programs. I think integrity is a thing of the past. Many players get rewarded for toxic behavior. All for a W. Many programs do so many camps and most of that money goes directly in the coaches pocket not the program. Then the players are forced to donate money aka fundraise. Then it seems the parents that give the most the player gets rewarded. "

"A lot of your alumni tell stories of you and your staff allowing them to drink on the bus after winning the conference tournament. This is concerning to me as a travel ball coach. SVSU is a program I hold in high regard but it’s hard for me to continue to do so when multiple girls mention this…. in a bragging way. I don’t think that is a culture that should be celebrated. "

"Inappropriate with my teammates. We weren’t very good overall and he didn’t help us get any better. Not knowledgeable as a coach and tried to date my roommate. Love seeing his twitter posts that give advice though. Mind boggling. "
