That is a bold statement on your part. Based on firsthand knowledge? Any details to share? I can't say who but I know as a point of fact that at least 2 players left due to not liking Carm. Don't know about the others, but full confirmation of at least 2 Carm recruited players that left specifically because of him. Sorry but that’s not fair to throw that out there without knowing the exact circumstances and who the players are…..especially if it’s hearsay, or an indirect source. A post making accusations like that without fact is pointless. Not everyone is going to like a coach, especially when discipline, expectations, playing time & roles are factored into the equation.

I wouldn’t like the coach if he didn’t play me either.

I was asked to keep the specifics quiet, so I'm doing that, and it's only 2 players, but it's enough to say that not everyone loves him despite what's been posted here. One felt that he was being misused and felt he was promised a different role (nothing to do with minutes btw, more offensive scheme issues). The other didn't specify what the issue with Carm was. But again, that's just 2 players. I have no information on the others.

I'm fine with it, by the way, as long as other options are better at that spot.

I’m not fine with it. The fact that Carm prefers a ACL-torn Gaines for one year over 3 years of Martin. I’ve asked before and I’ll ask again….what sort of blackmail material does Gaines have on Carm???

They don’t like Castagna either. Carm has a pattern of not telling the truth to his players and to the media. To many he seems like the hometown hero, but behind the scenes he’s definitely not a hero.

I'm more talking about playing players in different positions. Like Kellier being played as a backup 5 instead of a wing, or Baer playing the 4 instead of the 5. As for the Gaines situation... I give up. We're basically an island of misfit City Rocks at this point. We're not really gaining that much out of this relationship as much as they're gaining a D1 landing spot to fill their sheets.

Could be true, could be bull$hit. Again without names, circumstances, & factual info it’s kind of pointless to throw these statements out there! You have a handful of posters (some anonymous) tossing out unsubstantiated accusations. Sorry for taking all this with a grain of salt.

Like I said, I have no idea if it’s true but from all the departures and seeing the way he treats players differently, it wouldn’t surprise me anymore. I hope it’s not true.

When carm is fired, and I don’t know when that will be. Probably a new AD is required. Then Siena needs to hire a can’t miss coach.

As for names, I’m not releasing them for the sake of my son’s privacy, even though I’d really really like to. I get it, an issue may exist but….. Without knowing the player, circumstance & exact nature of the the conflict with Carm it’s hard to tell what’s going on. I’ve seen this soooooo many times with coaches and athletics. Some coaches are demanding, some kids are more sensitive to criticism or being challenged, some rise to the challenge, others don’t, there’s a lot that can be going on behind the scenes. I just don’t think accusations coming anonymously second hand & without factual details are appropriate.
