Interesting Drew, I don't want to start another war but Lag Erickson has George as one of his illustrations of being a hitter.
Knudson played and taught Balance, Centrifugal Force, Inertia, connecting a Starting position to a Finish Position as well as "giving up control, to get control". I don't ever recall Knudson ever saying that other than the Hands, Arms and Club are moved by the Body (weight transfer and rotation). While we are all entitled to our opinions, that is not Hitting.
