I like everything I've heard about Frank Pollack and from Frank Pollack.
While I've never heard this from a credible source, every exposure I've had to Alexander was that he was really intelligent, and a very successful coach, but he appeared massively arrogant and self centered.
Here's going to be an interesting thing - if Og and Fish turn out big time. Then as much as we credit Pollack for pulling the talent out of them, we'll have to credit PA for appropriately assessing their talent and acknowledging that he was right when he said that it was a matter of time.
No matter. I will be happy to spread the glory around, but I am really excited to have this group of coaches and the environment they have created. And I can't wait to see how all this translates when the real playing starts.
