They said they live in Louisiana... eff you and your crappy outlook. Louisiana has routinely put a team or two in the national top 25 high school rankings and they did have the gatorade National player of the year last year. If you want to crap on somebody, know your sheet first. Or pick on my state instead. Mississippi is coming up! I amended to blanket it to high school volleyball in general, not just specifically Louisiana. Most high school volleyball in the country is... pretty bad. Even in areas with a high concentration of club ball.

I thought Jamie engineered the Mizuno/Adidas shift, which although bungled, was a good switch. (from what I understood Mizuno's "sponsorship just amounted to free gear, and no money) . And, when Lori Okumura was added, people were pretty excited. Just like how excited I was for New Coke. And, ended up as well. Over 66% turn over in the USA office in the past 2 years, and the people they handed jobs off to not even close to ready. Biggest latest bungle was switch from AES to Sport Engine. Had to delay it, because, not only was it not ready, but regions were preparing lawsuits against privacy issues and memberships being moneytized for their data. Was getting ugly so they pumped the brakes and we will see what happens.

The apparel switch was a done deal before Jamie signed up... he is directly responsible for the turn over in Co Springs... Or I should say his policies are...

seems he may have cut the broadcast budget... or didn’t pay the internet streaming company... but who wants to watch NORCECA matches anyway!
