St. John Fisher University

"He tries to convince recruits that they play a possession based, high pressing, and attacking philosophy, which is absolutely comical because that team did not complete 5 passes all year. During the actual course of the season he kills players confidence and it reflects on the team as a whole. If you make one small mistake it’s the end of the world and you’ve dropped to the bottom of the depth chart. If you do something he likes (in one case wear his favorite color) you will suddenly be at the top of his depth chart. It’s an absolute joke. Doesn’t really seem to knowledgeable on the game of football tactically. Lack of motivation, does not care about his players off the field, lets politics get in between decisions that would help the team succeed. They should really move on from this guy. "

"He’s very manipulative and not fair with players, and it’s obvious he has favorites, which makes everything feel uneven from the start. He tells recruits that the team plays a possession style and builds from the back, but once you’re actually there, that’s not how the team plays at all, which feels misleading. On top of that, communication is a big issue. Expectations aren’t clear, and feedback is inconsistent, so players are often left guessing what they did right or wrong. The environment can feel negative, especially when mistakes are handled harshly instead of being used to help players improve, which really hurts confidence over time. There also doesn’t seem to be much structure or organization in training or game planning, and decisions can feel random rather than based on performance. Players don’t get real opportunities to showcase their ability, and it doesn’t feel like development is a priority. Overall, it creates a frustrating atmosphere where it’s hard to grow or succeed."

"I feel bad putting this out on the internet, but Coach Henchen is not the nicest of people. His recruiting spiel is a facade. He acts so kind, and then once you are on the team, he is somewhat disrespectful. He is not the kind of guy you want to talk to when you have an issue to discuss, when you have an injury, or when you can't make a practice. He cares more about winning by lightyears than he cares about the athletes. "

"A key figure in sustaining the excellence of the program."

"All we do is win. I loved Fisher. Baseball was the highlight. We are treated like D1 kids. I have friends on other division 1 teams and we get treated like that level. Great field, always challenged us with scheduling. I wouldn't have treated my experience for any other school."
