I'm always interested in hearing about the USMS demographics, but I couldn't find any information on USMS and college swimming. I was wondering roughly what percentage of US Masters swimmers swam in college and at what level. I also wanted to hear from you where you went, when, and what you loved / hated most about college swimming.
The new coach came in and point blank said to me that the incoming freshman and those after were "his team" and that was where he was going to put his time and effort
I can't understand why a new coach would come in and burn bridges like that. Telling the existing team members that "things are going to change" and "it's my way or the highway" is one thing, but I just can't imagine the rationale for alienating the team like this. Was the guy just a jerk or what?
