Pros

No good reason to work here except help kids.

Cons

Leadership is questionable, with allegations suggesting that he is more of a follower than a true leader. There are claims that Asst AD holds considerable influence over him, using an FSU hire to carry out tasks that may be perceived as unethical. The decision to hire FSU staff stems from a personal connection rather than merit, as a friend from FSU reportedly advocated for his recruitment. Mistreatment of athletic staff, who are described as enduring mental abuse without adequate support. Additionally, concerns are raised about the safety of students due to potential security lapses in facilities. A specific gender bias is alleged, with females reportedly facing harsher treatment compared to their male counterparts. Serious implications are hinted at, as the review calls for an NCAA investigation into various violations. The overall sentiment is that until a change in leadership occurs, the institution will remain a liability. The call for solidarity among affected parties suggests a potential class-action lawsuit to address the perceived inequalities. In a notable twist, the review points out a perceived contradiction involving a wealthy donor, a mental health counselor. The irony is emphasized, as donor, who advocates for mental health, is allegedly supporting an environment deemed toxic. This is characterized as a case of hypocrisy at its height.
