My daughter has been on this team for the past three years and she has had NOTHING but POSITIVE things to say about her teammates, all the coaches on staff and her experience at KU. My daughter is not a starter, but she does get some playing time here and there. As her mother this is a bit frustrating, but coach is always honest with her, available to speak with her when she has questions, she feels like she is improving every season and she feels very well supported in her efforts to get more playing time. My daughter is very happy at KU and loves this program, the culture, all her coaches and her teammates. That is what is important.

I could only select two of the tags to describe him because he is both unfittable and unworthy to be described in a positive way. If Erik is anything, he is a liar, manipulator, unhelpful, unfair, and a remarkable salesman! If it were not for the girls, I wouldn't have been able to survive all four years with this coach. I've played soccer for 18 years and he is by far the worst coach I ever played for. He will make his personal problems YOUR problems he will demoralize you of all self confidence. If you don't want to be mentally and emotionally abused, do yourself a favor and make a hard left when you see the name Erik Burstein.

Destroyed my mental health and love for the sport. Plays favorites and feeds you lies so you stay on the team. Constantly changing his rules to fit his favorite players. Most people transfer or quit by sophomore year.
