You’re all paying customers after all. You’re paying to be put second to someone else’s prior commitments. And you’re paying for a club that’s been without a DOC and TD for a while now.

I don't understand the dismissive attitude towards NM. All I know is there are dozens of players playing at the professional and college level who would praise NM. From what I read here, the problem is about the dysfunction of the organization and not the ability of the coaches to develop young players.

Dozens may praise, but hundreds+ will tell you the opposite.

This. His reputation precedes him.

I keep hearing about this bad reputation, but have no idea what he has actually done. What does his “bad reputation” stem from?

Being tough and wanting to make money. Neither things I have an issue with personally but those are the main gripes about him. People whose daughters have been successful under his coaching will tell you the toughness was key and that he deserves every penny he makes. Those who did not do well under him, do not like him. It’s the same with almost every coach but one thing NM has is a resume to back it up. He has been at many clubs but never got fired for not being successful, it was usually financial disagreements of some sort.
