"cares about academics and players personally "

"interesting coach but very nice to his players "

"kind and cared a lot about her players and very respectful"

"she is very honest and you know where you stand because there are two separate teams within the roster (one which plays and one which doesn't). however, kind of strange how she tries to treat the girls as both friends and players, which makes it difficult for her to be treated with respect because you can't be both. also very aggressive during games and speaks down to you, but that is a testament to the culture"

"Plays favorites and struggles to balance between social life and being a professional. "

"Karen is very passionate. She cares a lot about field hockey and winning and if you aren't doing a good job she will let you know, but it is to help grow you as a player."

"Great coach and even better person"

"Erin is one of the best coaches out there. She started her career as a walk on at North Carolina so she found rowing as a second sport after soccer. Erin genuinely cares about cultivating a team culture that is elite, supportive, and bought into from the top all the way down. She is an excellent leader, and genuinely cares about her athletes as people. We oftentimes have office hours that have nothing to do with rowing. She will give it to you straight- which I very much appreciate, and has a strong vision of what needs to happen to get UNC to be a nationally relevant school. She always pushes the team and it’s easy to follow her, great on the water coach, will work with any kid on the team not just the 1v and goes out with the lower boats sometimes to make sure she has eyes on everyone. Very flexible, no bs type of lady. She’s awesome and I would choose to be on a team with her over and over again. She also works very very hard with recruiting to make sure the right people are coming in. "

"I’ve never had a coach this deep in my personal life but then barely actually coach me or help me get better. Like, he’s mad invasive, always in people’s business, talks way too much, super unprofessional. But yeah, he knows wrestling, I’ll give him that. Any kid I’ve seen try to leave the program, he goes out of his way to trash them and basically burn that bridge completely. It’s weird. He wants to be a head coach so bad, but honestly, the way he acts is gonna block that every time. He’s always stirring stuff up with the coaching staff too. My group watched it happen twice now. He’ll do whatever he can to make the head coach look bad. It just makes everything tense and awkward in the room. And the way he handles athletes is off. It feels like he’s developing guys just so he can say their success is because of him, not because he actually cares about their future. Like, he’ll literally train someone else to beat you, then be in your corner hyping you up like none of that just happened, calling you “his guy.” It’s fake and everyone can see it after your around him for a while. "

"I think that when he first got to UNC he had good intentions, but the man is very unorganized and unfortunately here was a rumor that he embezzled funds from one of our non-profit organizations. He was "chill" but I think a lot of athletes struggled to have a genuine relationship with him. He was transactional. Known for sweeping things under the rug. His wife is overly involved in everything he does. "
