    I would think Zabel would be the best of the group. He's being touted as an All American and draft pick. But I do agree with you, Miller and Rock should be good as well as Zabel, leaving 2 spots for untried guys.

With the energy Polacek brings they should have capitalized on that if they are going to turn the fan ship around. They have failed. Wait you have to try before you fail.

    Does staring at your phone the whole time you're at an event count as engagement?

    That's what he is best at, zero personality to fans, he has the "im better than you" feel.

    Do I dare say the "East Coast Asshole" moniker?

    Yes, Zabel is a no doubter and could get drafted fairly high.

    The problem is there is a portion of the fanbase that believes Polacek is a meat head as well and it’s driven by players that played for him while here. Winning trumped all and developing young men was an after thought for him.

    Creative. Thats an interesting word. Does that mean, the coach is clueless and doing things willy nilly ?

    I'm confused. Are you saying the portion of the fanbase that thinks Polasek is a meat head is right or are you saying player development is an afterthought for Polasek?

    I havent heard that. But Im not surprised as not all coaches and players get along or agree.
