Ten of 12 Loyola University women's basketball team coached by Sheryl Swoopes have transferred to different programs. Swoopes has been accused of mistreating her players and the university is investigating the matter. An anonymous player told the school newspaper that the women's basketball Hall of Famer has been pushing her students too hard.

Sheryl Swoopes, who is a third-time Olympic gold medalist, first coached the Loyola University women's basketball team in 2013. Fox Sports reports that team spokesman Leo Krause said that there were 12 returning players for the season. However, 10 of those athletes asked to be transferred or released from Loyola University's scholarship program. She and her team are being investigated by the university after rumors of mistreatment and the massive transfer of its members.

"She really pushes them to the point of misery and to the point where they shut down," an anonymous source told The Loyola Phoenix school paper. The members allegedly feel "trapped" by Swoopes' coaching that they feel they are being micromanaged even in their daily lives.
