Agreed on the Davis/Jordan comments. I liked seeing JJJ on UCLA's sand staff. What ever happened to EY? She had a great 2009 season with May/Walsh on hiatus, but I never really knew what became of her after that? I was surprised to look back at the archives and see she and Rachel played some events together in 2010 after their partnership ended in 2006 with such a bang. Father Time, who is undefeated, happened to EY.

Yeah, Father Time is pretty rock solid, don't see much of an overall weakness in his game Hoping for Nick and Phil's sake it was just taking extreme precaution and nothing serious. BTW, Urango is hot.

Calf injury for Brunner. His calf had been wrapped during his Saturday matches.

... Gibb and Patterson might be the first us team I actually root against in the Olympics.
Why?

Any thoughts on Jeremy Casebeer's game currently? It wasn't too long ago people were talking about him as a possible young breakout player who might be heavily in the mix of top US players in the run for 2020. I dont think he even qualified for HUntington Beach?

I dont think he even qualified for HUntington Beach? IMO, Jeremy the person is pretty content with his life, I don't think he is trying to be part of the best volleyball pair he can be. I can't blame someone if they are truly happy, but I wish he'd go after it.

I also don't know who would be the option for him. He needs a right side defender, correct? Who could could he realistically steal from another team? He tried Casey but I think Casey wanted a better setter. He's not getting Lucena, Hyden, or Mayer.

If the off-season I was hoping for Slick, but not sure now.

I'm not sure. That is the only play to try and be an upper echelon player if you aren't huge. Avery tried it but just didn't seem play good enough defense. I think Tim Bomgren or Tri Bourne could do it. Tri of course doesn't need to do so. But they seem more fluid/smooth than Jeremy. Just my opinion. Maybe split blocking with someone?
