A good friend of mine has a daughter who was a heavily recruited rower. My friend felt like it really came down to height and erg time. She may have misjudged but for D1 rowing she said it seemed very numbers driven. Vs say D3 (which they toyed with for a while) that seemed to care a bit more about rowing vs numbers. (I think a lot of coaches think they can fix anyones technique if they’re super tall and have the ability to push themselves to a breaking point erg time).

There’s also an old thread here that I found super helpful and shared with said friend about D1 rowing. It’s broken into three parts I think and is super detailed and knowledgeable.
