"Players beware: If you are injured during a season, you will be cast aside and cut from the roster. Injured players are treated like bottom feeders, and the staff does not go out of their way to help them rehab. There are reasons why two coaches and numerous players have left in the two years Devin has been the Head Coach. He's so desperate for players that the majority of his recruits are on their second and third schools. Devin has zero empathy for anyone except himself and his fake image. Has anyone ever wondered why, after YEARS, the players' benches were moved to the other side of the field? Out of the view of ESPN cameras and out of earshot of the fans? Or why has he left so many schools? He can play the victim card all he wants, but he cannot hide from the truth."
"Hi Devin, I know you're reading this as you continue to write more positive reviews about yourself to cover your tracks from the past.
To anyone actually considering this coach, do your research. The glowing reviews don't reflect the experience many players have had. This is an environment where players were made to feel small, concerns were dismissed, and the focus was more on appearance and reputation management than actual player development. Favoritism, broken promises, and zero real development, if you aren't his favorite, you are invisible.
When your first instinct is to cover up your past instead of owning it. That's not a coach, that's a liability and a guilty conscience. Trust what the critical reviews have to say. We have no reason to lie, but he does. "
"Coach Devin often communicated in ways that felt misleading, telling players what they wanted to hear rather than being direct and honest, making it difficult to trust the feedback or expectations within the program. There also appeared to be clear favoritism between players who consistently played and those who came off the bench, and if you were not considered one of the favorites, interactions often felt dismissive and unequal regardless of effort or attitude. From a development standpoint, many players felt they did not improve much under the coaching staff because practices frequently lacked intensity, structure, and meaningful instruction, with some training sessions feeling very unproductive overall. There were also many promises made regarding player development, opportunities, team culture, and other aspects of the program that were never truly followed through on, which negatively affected morale and trust throughout the team. Overall, the environment often felt inconsistent, unfair, and lacking accountability, leaving many players feeling overlooked and unsupported."
"In my experience, Coach Devin was very difficult to work with. I felt like he was overly controlling and wanted everything done exactly his way, which made the environment stressful instead of supportive. It also seemed suspicious to me that whenever a negative review appeared, several positive reviews would suddenly show up right after. I just noticed an athlete said “Playing for Coach Devin kills your love for soccer” And only ten minutes later Three positive reviews roll in same day saying “Coach Devin Brought my love back for the game” Isn't that suspicious? Coach Devin is a lying fraud and a manipulator I think be should be stripped from his job."
