Here. As this was posted on this thread someone was posting about EmRatThich on a different thread:
Worth reading. And clearly I am not the only one who hears the BS and wants to see the guy and his students play.
If you want the rest of the responses to this post, go to the TTDaily Chit Chat thread to page 197. That is where it starts. It was the last page when I posted this. But that thread keeps growing.

It's true that you want to see the person play. Every individual has a different physical make up: skinny, big, long arms, short legs, small hands, big feet, etc. That individual build affects how each person will play, and a good personal coach will be able to point out a proper stroke to suit the individual. Theory is the same for everyone, but application requires a spotter to correct and optimize the theory to the individual. ZJK and FZD have the same coach with similar theory, but the players look very different with the way they execute their serves and strokes.
Also, their rubber choices are individualized to suit their strong points and tastes.
