Meezonos Maven, it sounded like Rav Kanarek ZT”L (who, besides being a talmid of Rav aharon ZT”L, was a talmid in the mir and Kaminetz in europe, and had a kesher with HIS rabbeim and a real mesorah), is putting the blame on Lakewood post- Rav aharon ZT”L. He WAS in Lakewood, under Rav Aharon ZT”L, as well as the aforementioned yeshivas, and knew what a rebbe-talmid relationship was all about. He also said that Rav Aharon ZT”L knew what it was about. But let us avoid the word “blame”, which can lead to unnecessary finger pointing and denigration of gedolim. Let’s take the point as a “cheftza”- a yeshiva shouldn’t be too large for talmidim to have a proper kesher with their rebbe, and not as a “gavra”- this guy or that guy is wrong.
