"Extremely motivational coach, well liked by majority of the team. Was an excellent resource to go to considering the rest of the coaching staff were unlikeable and difficult to respect. Shame he left. "

"It was a shame Dan was only at SMU for a short period of time. I believe that he helped uplift the team, especially during challenging times with changes all around. Dan was someone that I could trust, someone that provided meaningful feedback, and someone who helped drive a team culture to somewhere special. Unfortunately, once Dan left the program this culture began to plummet, suggesting he made a drastic change for the betterment of the program and athletes around him. Before races, Dan would always be there to provide motivation, excitement, and dull down nerves. He had an exceptional read on the sport, as well as what it means for a team to be connected in order to do well. "

"Really knowledgeable and pushes you be fast. Great at working in many ways to develop skills as an athlete and person "

"I had this coach for a year after a coach change and I found her very knowledgable and felt a huge positive difference in how I responded to her training."

"Coach Barrick is very knowledgable about the sport, especially on the doubles court. He knows how to balance the serious side and the relaxing side of a team very well. He has very high expectations which have its pros and sometimes its cons. "

"Kim's been out from injury for a bit, but overall she is an amazing improvement and what the SMU Rowing team needed. She's intense and expects a lot, but she usually knows what she's doing and has big plans for the team. The girls like her and her training program. Her assistant coaches are competent and useful, but don't like advice much at all."

"She's awesome. Very intense and intimidating but personal at the same time. She expects a lot of us but she's still fun and is turning our program around. "

"I only had her for a year since we had a coach change my senior year, but during that time, she was a great coach. I felt comfortable talking to her and 100% trusted her training."
