Guess Larson and Robo made the roster already...? There’s our answer about development. Regardless, you know these two names need to be attached to sell this thing. In Nebraska? Absolutely not.

Realistically - what are the chances of players being invited that are not on Team USA's roster? On those you mention, this is Foecke, Cuttino, Maloney, Hunter, and Poulter. I think they are all still in classes except maybe Hunter? I don't stalk them on social media, so maybe they graduated early. If they are in class, then training for, and playing in VNL is unlikely. Maybe they start training with Team USA over the summer, but would probably play in lesser events than VNL, if any. Like Todd said, I don't know exactly how they do things in Team USA, so I could be totally wrong. You are.

This is a little off topic but why do you all think Karch is overseas right now? He visited China (Dixon, Kindgon, Murphy) and was in Italy for the Coppa Italia Semi's/Finals (Carlini, Bartsch, Hill, Lowe)....what do we really think is going on?

It's not unusual for the National Team coach to attend international matches in the off-season.

Going over the bench choreography for the 2019 season.

Sure they realized the importance of Nebraska names to sell seats last year. It’s an easy assumption to assume Nebraska = Volleyball but that wasn’t the case for the national team. This is clearly the case here with only two Nebraska players on the A team are being used to market this event. Foluke, Kim Hill, Kelly Murphy and Rachel Adams, starters from Rio, will likely be st this event as well but aren’t being tapped to sell tickets.
