Disorganized Poor Communication
My daughter left UT because of this coach. She was passionate about the game and recognized fir her skill on her HS and Club teams. Unfortunately there are no positives to select. The coach is aloof - unreachable - I question her knowledge of the game. These reviews are an ongoing testament to yhis coach’s impact on her student athletes. WAKE UP UT ATHLETICS…. does this team embody the spirit and pride of your other teams?

Poor Communication
Worst experience in the entire recruiting process. Expresses great interest and wastes players time to get $$ for their camps. Tells recruits to call her and doesn’t reply for days or weeks and provides little to no further information or feedback, good or bad. She leads them on and then ghosts them. We were warned about her and this program but now have seen for ourselves. Any coach that has a sign outside the locker room with multiple comments about leaving your issues and drama off the field, should be a red flag. You wouldn’t need all of those reminders about negativity if it wasn’t a serious issue. Players beware. Especially freshman.

Once the recruiting proces is over, this coach is a poor communicator, autocratic & uses yelling insults as a form of coaching. She is stubborn, vindictive, self-servicing & refuses to listen. She expects players to follow her without question, but is unable to provide actionable coaching especially during games. Nothing is ever good enough & because she refuses to provide any positive feedback, the players have no sense of what they are doing well vs what needs to be improved . Her team is made up of transfers & grad students because she runs off >50% of her freshman class every year. She picks favorites, and everyone else is left in the dark about their status on the team. She cares very little about the health of her players & would never go out of her way to inquire on their well being until she needs something from them.

Communicated as if openings existed, attended camp did well and spoke afterwards as if offer would be forthcoming- then ghosted my daughter w no further feedback. Awful way to handle a prospective student athlete. Just be honest. Based on this would never recommend any player/parent trust this coach. My daughter went on to play on full scholarship at a D1 school.
