ORLANDO – Between moving his family to Central Florida, learning everything that there is to know about Orlando, familiarizing himself with his new Orlando Magic players and shuttling his girls to separate soccer practices, Frank Vogel has had a whirlwind offseason.
Highly successful as head coach of the Indiana Pacers for 5 ½ seasons, Vogel surprisingly found himself out of work on May 5. He wasn’t unemployed long as the Magic worked feverishly to hire one of the NBA’s most respected head coaches.
Vogel, 43, had a host of choices, and he opted to become Orlando’s head coach on May 20.
