But all it's doing is draining the water from the bottom on the rinse cycle but never spins (so some of the water just sits in the clothes....but appreciate the help

If very hard to turn the coupler, you have stuck brake shoes. Go to my "sticky" above "replacing direct drive brake shoes" for info.
