"Just as Hugh was in the last quad, Karch seems committed to using the 6-2 substitution, as well as a designated serving substitute (Miyashiro in London, now Lichtman) during games. Given that Glass is likely the anointed starting 5-1 setter for the foreseeable future, Thompson probably fulfills the role of setter in the 6-2 sub better than Lloyd does. As long as the coaches feel this way, my guess is Thompson will likely continue to be picked ahead of Lloyd on important rosters." While this is all true, I would think that the WGP two years away from the Olympics is the PERFECT time to give someone like Lloyd a LONG LOOK at playing with the team. Karch and everyone knows how Glass performs with the team. Internationally, Lloyd is a very well respected.... playing for big time teams in big time tournaments; yet USA volleyball appears to not be very impressed. Its perplexing. While I'm not disagreeing or agreeing with you. What makes you think that Llyod fits the current USA system? Just because she's well respected overseas doesn't mean she sets the tempo, consistently, that Karch demands. Just a thought... haha I think we posted at the same time regarding Lloyd and the USA system.

USA X RUS was a good match. But US should improve in some ways, the coach is following the right path to get the team at high levels. Now He can see that the game structure that worked against a " tired not so serious brazil" in that friendlies.

Brazil vs China will be an interesting match! I'm predicting 5 close sets with China winning it.
