The fact it woke his ass up and now he's playing better in no way makes me wrong about anything.

Well that's a pretty enviable position to be in - no matter what happens, you get to claim you were right.
If he sucks -- "Told ya so"
If he leaves and performs -- "Told ya so"
Nothing in his entire career indicated he was uncoachable, he just had a half-wit as a head coach that never attempted to work with him on his tackling technique or modify his scheme to fit Pollard's strengths.
Rather than see if he could be coached, we dumped him. Your position is that this was needed to wake him up, but that only makes a bit of sense if he ever appeared to be resistant to coaching.
That simply wasn't the case. It wasn't that he couldn't be coached, its that we didn't try.
You're as full of shit on this particular front as you are on...well pretty much everything.
