This coach cannot, build a boat, establish an effective practice, hold a cool temper, and coach both men’s and women’s team equally. He was majorly biased to his favorite fastest rowers and only cared to talk to them. He would constantly threaten he was going to have a “manurizm” and explode. As a result, there was never a time when I felt comfortable with this coach. Because of how he built boats and orchestrated practices, i hold a firm belief he didn’t know how to be prestigious rowing coach. I think overall he’s on a major ego trip, because he was able to get his name on the boathouse. The only notable achievement of his career was taking a M Lwt Quad to youth internationals and placed 10/11th. Overall, he’s a mentally abusive coach and needs a major reality check.
