" Head coach at Austin Peay State is absolutely a horrible coach and even worse person. Mentally abusive to players, coaches and personnel. Creates a very toxic and negative environment. Is very disrespectful to players and staff. Does not believe in any of her players, is only out to win at any cost creating a very negative environment. Encouraging players to quit constantly, telling them they will never play here and to look elsewhere. Definitely does not play her best players, record speaks for itself. Stay away from this program until a new coach is in place. Sadly a great school whose keeping an awful coach who stands for nothing the school portrays itself to be"

I have interacted with multiple other DI coaches who knew that Tom Chorny was my coach and showed concern for me — this program has a reputation across multiple NCAA DI teams and conferences for having large numbers of athletes injured/unable to compete."

"Coach knew a lot about the sport and had a credible background, but she had no sense of leadership or respect for her athletes or assistant coaches. She puts on a great first impression but falls short when following through with promises. She also puts on a great show for the athletic department, but is truly only self-serving. "
