Disorganized

"There’s no words to even describe how terrible of a coach he is. He never does anything and just gets bossed around by his assistants then cries in the locker room to the girls when he has to get a new coaching staff every year. We all know you didn’t step down for health reasons, you just were going to get fired since he has a habit of hiring his abusive friends as coaches and lets them run all over him and girls. "

Intense Poor Communication

"I cannot believe this person is still being trusted to coach college golf. This individual is the most selfish, narcissistic person I have ever encountered in a leadership role. He cares about nothing but his own success and not his players. Whatever it takes to further his career he will do and will leave his players in heartbeat if it is something that can possibly help him. I have seen him threaten and almost fight a player. Parents - do not let your child play for this man unless you want them to have an awful experience and probably ruin their college golf experience."
