"Dishonest, lack of caring, lack of and warped communication, zero leadership, soccer knowledge and bringing the team together. The communication there is, which is close to zero, is twisted and makes players think if they meet practice goals and expectations that they will see playing time- which doesn’t happen and with no communication. Misleads players, and the nepotism is infuriating, as well as family friends and the son’s roommate play. All get max playing time despite the performance or having to earn and put in time. He yells at players to shut up and to not speak to him. No open door policy. No trying to make a player, the team, the camaraderie better. Awful treatment of and ignoring of seniors is shocking and mean. Mentally messes with the boys and bullys them. And unfortunate because he has a great team of players and could be doing so well in the conference. Wesleyan is a great school otherwise, but if you are looking for a quality, fulfilling D3 soccer experience, I’d look elsewhere. "

"If you’re a brainwashable, naive international student, then you’ve probably been recruited by coach fried. He just wants to win, not develop players. He recruits international students, taking spots away from deserving tax-paying American students. He used to supply underage students with alcohol to host parties for recruits. He’s a Wall Street man - operating on the idea that student athletes are transactional - if you’re not performing, he’ll give your spot away without trying to help you. He doesn’t know how to coach, he just tries to recruit the best players (even if that means going to Hong Kong)… "

"Mark is a very quirky coach that holds onto his beliefs (even if it may not make sense) and expects his players to follow him blindly. He is a poor communicator and appears ti enjoy leaving people in the dark. His baseball IQ is questionable and is a proud person. So proud that he cannot fathom his own faults. He has his personal favorites and they can do no wrong. If you are not on his high list, he only sees the mistakes and discounts the good plays. "

"Worst coach I’ve ever had. Complete lack of transparency, will lie straight to your face just to stab you in back. Also out of nowhere cut the two most skilled soccer players on our team just for the team to have another awful season. He recruits and cuts players like he doesn’t care about the players whatsoever cause he doesn’t. He is a coward."

"Extremely inconsistent with his rhetoric. Says one thing one day, then changes his mind the next, etc. Unable to make up his mind, which is evident from the number of different starting lineups and substitutions he uses in the season. This speaks volumes for a losing program that still lacks an identity/system after nearly 20 years of Wheeler"
