"Coach Hendricks is knowledgeable and will help you get better at swimming. He does make sure you attend classes. But he will tear you down and use the things that hurt you the most. He will use personal information and lie to cover his track along with breaking health protocols. Terrible experience and not a good coach overall"

"Only prioritizes his athletes that have a chance at going to nationals. Has broken HIIPA to tell unauthorized individuals about injuries and tells women to eat less Also only swims against bad teams to maintain the record of “best DIII team in indiana” when they consistently lose to both depauw and wabash in invitationals. But he has cancelled all of their dual meets to preserve the title of “undefeated”"

"Overall, the lack of funding for athletics at Franklin College is what is holding their facilities back. It is Division III so it's not like I was expecting much, but Franklin is adamant on renovating the facilities that don't need it rather than building a pool for one of the most successful teams on campus. They got the job done, and you meet a lot of new people in these facilities that bodes well for overall campus and athlete cohesion."

"Some of my best memories have been made as a member of the FC swim team, thanks to Coach Hendricks. While he has very high expectations, he cares about our success both in and out of the pool. He sees the value in being collegiate student athletes and pushes us to do our best each and every day. He creates a team culture unlike any other college program I know and the connections I have created at FC will continue for many years after I graduate. I am thankful to be part of the Grizzly swimming family!"

"Everyone respects Coach and though he can be harsh sometimes, it's only because he sees something in us and wants us to do something constructive with our gifts. He has high standards and expects excellence at all times. He is always honest with you, even if it's not something you want to hear, and he knows that hard work and dedication are the only ways to succeed in and out of the pool. Receiving praise from him is certainly an accomplishment because you know that he means it and that you earned it. "

"Lack of communication led to little to no pr's. Would tell his runners he was explicitly nervous for them in bigger competitions which led to a lack of confidence amongst many of his runners. Held a lack of knowledge on his runner's strengths. Also had no personality whatsoever. Highly recommend finding a different coach to run for."
