The coxswain was really bad. I think they could have gotten a JV level rower or coxswain to do it better on both ends.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The only thing that he liked was that Teagan &#8220;was wearing Oakley\u2019s. Other than that, this was horrible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also urged people who wanted to get into rowing to not watch the show.

She said, \u201cHer (Teagan) handles are so high, her blades might be at the bottom of the river. The puddles are sh*t and so is everything else. And what the hell is the 6-seat doing? He has missed every single catch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She later spotted another problem. \u201cCoxing also requires steering,\u201d she said. \u201cThe fact that she could just get in the boat without a lot of steering practice is some nonsense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She also questioned the choice of boats being used in the show. \u201cWhy are they rowing in stern-loaded fours? Are they at a 20 to start these pieces? Like, what?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The rowing in the scenes was bad enough, but she also questioned why a co-ed school that is supposedly so focused on rowing wouldn&#8217;t have a girls\u2019 team.<\/p>\n<p>She said, \u201cTeagan is supposed to be obsessed with rowing but didn\u2019t check to see if they had a team. Didn\u2019t email the coach? What in the Title IX is a prep school doing with only a boys&#8217; team? You think rich parents aren\u2019t using rowing to get their daughters into an Ivy League? Impossible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The clothes did not escape her either. \u201cWhat the hell is the uniform rule here? Is it just preppy clothes?
