Getman is entering his fourth year as a collegiate coach and second year with GSW. He spent one season at East Tennessee State University (ETSU) as the men’s goalkeeper coach and one and a half years at Oglethorpe University as an assistant coach for the men's and women's teams.

He is from a coaching family as his father and brother are both college coaches.

Getman is a decorated player at the high school and collegiate level. In 2011, he was an Alabama state high school champion. In 2017, he was named an NJCAA All-Region first team goalkeeper, and in 2019, he was named a USCAA All-American.

Getman is a veteran of the sport, and to the country. He served as an Infantry Soldier in the United States Army from 2014 to 2016, between attending Wallace State Community College and Quincy College. After his service, Getman attended Quincy College where he captained the team to their first ever playoff games and earned the aforementioned NJCAA honor.   

Getman was also a team captain when he attended Bryant & Stratton College in Albany, New York. He earned an associate degree in General Business/Commerce from the school in 2020 and is expected to graduate with a bachelor's degree in fall 2025. 

Even with an admirable time on the field, Getman is no stranger to coaching. From 2019 to 2020, Getman was the New York Elite FC U-16 Assistant Coach and Goalkeeper Coach, and from 2020 to 2021 was the Assistant Coach for the East Tennessee State University men's soccer team. Since 2021, he has been a Tri-Cities United U-14 Coach and Goalkeeper Coach. 

During his playing career, Getman was a first team NJCAA All-Region player at Quincy College in Quincy, Mass. and a USCAA All-American and two-year captain at Bryant & Stratton College in Albany, N.Y.  

He has coached three goalkeepers to all-conference honors, one at ETSU, one on the men's team at Oglethorpe and one on the women's team at Oglethorpe helping her post a program-high seven shutouts. 

Getman and his wife Tori have three kids, Cayden (13), Max (10), and Jaxon (3).
