Disorganized Poor Communication
Very poor communicator and only cares about getting recruits to ID camp to make money not recruit. Leads multiple players on without and feedback or follow up. Almost exclusively recruits from the transfer portal. Maybe due to lack of coaching ability and once this Covid nonsense of six years is over Tampa will struggle. No culture within this team and results speak for themselves.

Disorganized Poor Communication
Her results speak for themselves. Tampa has continued to get worse and worse every year she has been with the program. She treats recruits with so much disrespect and she is unprofessional to club coaches thinking she is more then she is. Waiting for the UT to wake up and make a coaching change - the university and location are amazing however I would 100% tell player to run away from this program until this coach is replaced.

Very poor communicator and not sure what she is trying to build at Tampa. Know a number of players she led on just to get ID camp money and totally ghosted them without feedback to the player or their coaches.

Intense Disorganized Fitness Is Important Poor Communication
Thinks she can treat recruits like she is at a top D1 program. She has not delivered results since she has been at University of Tampa. She took over a National Championship team and has not had success. The location and facilities are driving recruits to want to play at UT but all she has done is focus on the transfer portal for D1 players who couldn’t make it at that level. Would be a good strategy if she was respectful and honest to recruits. Many of them will not forget how she treated them and they will go to competing school and they won’t forget how she ghosted them. They will play with a chip on their shoulder and heart can overcome a lot. Predict UT has a hard time producing results until they fire Coach Switalski. They say coaches don’t forget but neither do recruits.

Not sure how this coach has a 3.6 but let me be real for everyone.This is the worst soccer coach I have ever had. Not even sure to call her a soccer coach or more of a track/military coach. She does not have compassion for anyone, and should not be a coach.Yes fitness in soccer is important but there comes a point where you need to play with a ball

She isn't who you think she is. She is a good coach and very passionate about the game. However, being recruited by her and playing for her are two completely different things. How she acts infront of parents or family memebers is not how she acts infront if you or the team, those are two completely different people. The fitness is crazy, it does help in the game but the way she gets us fit is not fun, AT ALL!! It is all just running to make crazy times while people pass out, throw up and cry

Erin is overall a good coach. She is very passionate about the sport; if you want to win, and are willing to sacrifice everything, she will be a good fit. Get ready to run! She loves her fitness...but it does help in the game. She is very intense on the field, but very approachable off the field. She does not like surprises, so make sure you are very honest. Overall a challenging coach on the soccer field, but it is worth it to get results.
