"Coach Nangle motivated all of us to be our best. She truly cares about her players. The whole coaching staff takes a lot of time to meet with everyone and they are committed to making us all better people and lacrosse players. "
"I would give this man zero stars if I could. He terrorized the team mentally, emotionally, and physically. The most manipulative, egomaniacal, negative man I have ever met in my life. I am still talking about the way he affected me 13 years after I arrived on campus. He is an actually mean, bad person who did not care about the wellbeing of his players.
His style of coaching was holding the fear of god over us and as much fear as he could possibly instill. No nurturing, encouragement, or confidence building. I have endless stories about him. "
"Jake cares about Jake, he will say an do anything to promote himself and the program. Then when you join you'll see a completely different person and program. Nothing about his "innovative" style of coaching is new or up to current swim standards. Old school mentality of grind it as hard as you can with same repetitive things.
During recruiting he'll give you all kinds of attention, long talks, and glorious stories of the program and culture. But then as soon as you're in season the self importance of Jake begins. He has zero idea how to deal with girls and give motivation. There is no positive energy and everything is based on fear and a negative occurring. He will find his one or two favorites on the team that are the fastest and those are the only swimmers that get the attention or any positive feedback.
Now even before the House vs. NCAA settlement has been approved with roster limits he's taking the Liberty Team Culture and throwing it out the window for his own ego. In some delusion he believes he will get transfers from other Major D1 schools to Liberty. Just look at his bio on the Liberty swimming page, it's nothing but a diatribe of how great he thinks he is and ego boost.
Beware of the bait and switch. He'll talk a good game, but once you're in the program you'll realize you've been sold a lemon."
"Coach Johnson by far was the worst coach I've ever had. He was a very poor communicator and very non motivational. He never allowed his assisant coaches to coach. This coach should be no where near a volleyball court. I feel bad for any girl that has to play for him. "
