His reputation does speak for itself but I think the OP brings up a good point. I don't doubt that a guy like Butch Harmon is a good teacher but there's also that argument about Greg Norman or Tiger Woods reaching #1 no matter who their coach was. The same can be said for David Leadbetter. Guys like Charles Howell III or Justin Rose would be good no matter who their teacher was but the one thing you see is that Leadbetter's students don't seem to be doing all that great right now.
Then again, great is relative.
