I was fortunate enough to get to play for Coach Hutchens from ‘02-‘04 and they don’t get much better than him, on the field or off. He demanded a lot from you and expected your best each and every day (classroom, field, and weight room). There is no doubt that’s why we had as much success as we had while he was the HC during my time there.
A lot of his staff (and former players) have gone on the be very successful HC’s in their own right. Coach Hutchens knew how to run a very successful football program from top to bottom - not to mention a program that is full of pride, tradition, and incredible community support.
Rest in Peace, Coach.
