"This is a coach who has no business leading a division one program. Coach Carrie is a liar who doesn’t not value her athletes or their success. Coach Carrie only rowed for a semester in college (she will gladly look you in the eye and tell you otherwise), yet she will shame her athletes for not being strong enough for her standards. It is very hard to be motivated by a coach who has little knowledge about the sport and is in poor physical condition her self. So bad she had a heart attack scare during practice. Some people are better off eating their McDonald’s and not coaching. "

"Coach Carrie is very organized and good at managing a team logistically. However she is not the most knowledgeable or experienced. She often makes decisions on boating lineups that do not make sense and it seems like she picks some athletes over others not because they are faster, but because she likes them more. Her lack of athleticism and personal achievement makes it difficult to be motivated by her. "

"Embarrassed, I am embarrassed to be a part of this program. Our head coach has less experience than every athlete on the team. Carrie Cook-Callen gave up. I don't think there is any other word than that. She does not know how to coach and I truly think it shows in all of our results as a program. She is getting paid to sit, be silent during practice and eat McDonalds. "

"Distrustful, horrible at communicating, overreacts about things that shouldn’t matter, tries to control every aspect of life outside and inside the sport, pits towers against each other also rowed for one semester and is somehow our head coach"
