"Bales was a fine coach when I first got to campus but the longer we interacted the more his real character began to show. His practice plans are unorganized and don’t make much sense. He has lied about a coach being suspended by saying he had a family emergency, all while preaching honesty. For being a psychology major, he tends to tear down his players mentally, even chirping some of his own players during games. He has continued to lose respect from his players and other athletic faculty, multiple complaints have been made to the athletic department but very little action has been taken. Avoid this coach as he does not develop players."

"The facility that the gym is in is amazing! It is a state of the yard, newly renovated facility that literally just blows your mind when you walk through it. There’s a rock climbing wall and plenty of other amenities to go along with it. We have a practice gym as well as a huge stadia that we plan for games that is amazing. I can’t say enough about how cool these facilities are it’s like being in a D1 University."
