"Playing for Sam was mentally exhausting. As a coach, he does not know the game enough to really help the team. We would be running a basic offense in games and when it didn’t work, he would call a timeout & tell us to run the same thing as if it was going to make a difference. It felt like he wasn’t even watching the game or knew what was happening. In practice, he doesn’t coach you, he only runs the drills. In the past, his assistants also didn’t coach so I learned NOTHING. He might have been a good coach back in the day when the school was a JC/SC but he is not adequate for a D1 position. Sam is also one that cannot take feedback at all or change things when the team needs it most. I work for a past player of Sam’s who said as a team they were burnt out. They had the captains talk to him & instead of taking in the feedback and helping the team, he decided to make it all about him and “step down.” That all happened a day before they played Weber & THEY LOST because of all of the drama and lack of focus that Sam had created. He is also one that when coaches come in for interviews with the team, he will hand out slips with questions, one of them being about their religion so it takes the legality issues off of him & puts them on us. Sam acts like your Bishop & will punish you or make you feel horrible about yourself if you’re not living the way that he thinks you should be according to the local church. He plays so many mind games with so many players that its sad the effect he creates on a team. Many players have gone to the AD about this but they do nothing even though his coaches rating is HORRIBLE. There is no reason he should still be coaching. The only good thing that has come to this program is Kylin Munoz & Andrew Richards who have actually made this program into something great. Its too bad that they don’t get the recognition they should as they are the SOLE reason this program is doing well. "

"Do not play for this coach. Chris Case is openly emotionally abusive towards his players. His extreme cruelty is relentless, as it appears fun to him to see how far he can push his players mentally. His coaching style is clearly authoritarian, which in most cases can aid in the unity of a team, yet he manages to divide the team further by playing favorites and stating that one person is the cause of some form of punishment. Fredonia has let down so many women by allowing this man to continue."

"The years I spent playing under Chris Case were some of the worst years of my life. I speak for not only myself but so many others when I say do not play for this program. He doesn’t truly care about his players. I have never seen a man disrespect women and get away with it time and time again like Case does. "

"He was a great coach who knew was very knowledgeable. He works a lot on hitting techniques which is great because runs wins games in the end. "

"He's awesome"
