I'm surprised Chow has so many votes. He did a great job with Shawn (except for the flexibility issues) but we haven't seen how he does with other elites. He may be a great coach for lower level athletes and could do well with other elites but in the future but we don't know that yet. It's hard to say how much of Shawn's success was due to her talent and how much was due to Chow.

Since I don't know the coaches in the poll personally I picked based on the results they've had in the past. I would say it's between Valeri and Kelli Hill. I voted for Valeri but I could've gone either way.

Mihai has done a great job with Alicia and Ali on 3 events. His girls might do better with a separate bars coach but I'm not sure how much better. I don't think either of them are naturally talented on bars.

Kim and Chris seem like they're doing a good job with their athletes. It'll be interesting to see how much success their gym has when their girls become seniors.
