So lets see, I am in third eight and third eight is doing badly. Wow this sounds like exactly what I said would happen in august. Hope and effort asside things ended up exactly
as I thought they would. I don't mind being third eight really, I do
mind a third eight doing poorly. I also am confused as to why when 4
returners are available why all of them aren't in the 3rd eight and one
is on land. I also wonder by we aren't given the best
(non-freshman 8 a lineup) novices, I hope Brian/Dan resolves those two
things quickly because that will make us improve instantaneously.
Secondly the used Hudson is like rowing a rock, with a boat made to be
rowed by a crew weighing at least
175lbs being rowed by a crew that averages 150 does feel right. Maybe
with some rigging adjustments we can get it feeling a little more
normal or row with the mojo which would be my preference. I figure once
V8 and JV8 stabilize more some of these issues will be addressed and
correct, I know Dan wants everyone to do their best at each level so
once he has the time it'll work out.
I got into FSU today which didn't really surprise me although I am happy I have somewhere to go if all else fails w00t.
As for other things, possibilities are encouraging, everyday I realize a new one. I'll have to feel this out now.
