Who's the better high school coach of an all-time US distance great who then went on to coach them during their pro career? I guess we're really comparing Webb vs. Fisher.
Webb:
HS 3:59 indoor/3:53 outdoor
Pro: 3:46 Mile/US 1500 champ 2004, 2005, 2007
Fisher:
HS: NXN champ/3:59 Mile
Pro (Listing only results under Scannel): 5k/10k Bronze/Two US championships/12:53 5k 26:43 10k
And Fisher isn't done yet under Scannell. I guess you'd have to say Scannell is better now that I wrote this all out.

It would have been a fun debate until Fisher won two Olympic medals.
Fisher has been coached the majority of his post highschool time by others. Webb's coach coached him to all those times minus ~10 months. Also Webbs mile time still to this day ranks higher on all time performance lists than Fisher's 10k. Much less when he wan it. Fisher has better creds with his metals but to think his highschool coach was the main coach that got him there is ignorant. What you do the previous 4 years has a bigger effect in aerobic events than the last 1 year

That does pretty much seal the deal but it is worth noting that Raczko also coached recent American record holder in the marathon Keira D'Amato. That's as big a spread as it gets--by sex, age, and event.

Mike Scannell coached Grant Fisher for 9 months before he won two medals at the Olympics. Razcko coached Alan Webb for five years before he broke the AR in the Mile.
This seems like this should be a conversation of Schumacher vs Razcko.

Would’ve been a fun debate if Webb wasn’t a head case.
