Frank Vogel may carry himself as a quiet and genial, but focused person. It is hard to imagine when talking to him that he can raise his voice.
There is a seriousness about him though. He is not the rah-rah, fire-and-brimstone coach. That is not his approach. But he is not simply there to be a friend and encourager either.
In the Orlando Magic’s first few days of practice it was clear exactly the kind of tone and seriousness Vogel would bring. But also the levity he would bring.
This is not the same coach the Magic had last year in the hard-charging, always-serious coach Scott Skiles.
