OH: KRob, SWP, Plummer, Frantti MB: Ogbogu, Washington, Alhassan S: Poulter, Carlini Opp: Thompson, Drews L: JWO
For Paris, I'm not picking any college players, sorry not sorry. Three year is just too close and they need to prove they can play at the next level.

I just noticed Drews is missing?! .356 in Tokyo Unless she chooses not to compete in 2024, I don't know how she'd be left off the Paris roster. EDIT: I just realized what I wrote.

Maybe a little bit of a stretch but here are my thoughts:
OHs: Robo Plummer, SWP, Quade (predicting a huge year for her at Dresdner) MBs: Washington, Ogbogu, Rettke/Stivrins (is LS healthy enough to get time in the USA gym?) OPP: Thompson, Drews S: Poulter, Lilley L: JWO
With how Carlini handled the roster announcement and being left off: i.e her IG Post with Kingdon and little/to no recognition of the team’s success…is Karch goin got re-evaluate her role on Team USA? Upset or not, her silence on social media spoke volumes.

I know a similar thread already exists in the main board, but putting it here will preserve it for the next three years at which time the Paris roster will be announced and we can look back and criticize each other from a pedestal of hindsight superiority. OHs: Plummer, SWP, KRob, May MBs: Washington, Ogbogu, Rettke OPP: Thompson, Drews S: Poulter, Carlini L: JWO The OHs were the toughest. KRob won’t add anything new to her game in the next 3 years, but I don’t foresee her hanging it up either. Does MBH continue? Will she still have it 3 years from now? Does Mackenzie Adams get a shot? Does Mac May transition well to the international game? Eggleston could be a dark horse here. At OPP: does Drew’s befall a similar fate as Murphy? She’s better now than Murphy ever was so perhaps less likely. I’m confident there will be at least one Paris Olympian that no one here will predict. I’ve obviously played it pretty safe. Let’s hear yours. This happens every time lol... I have to go back and find my past few quads predictions. It's always a mess. That’s why this is FUN.

I saw her post about the gold medal and I mean is she even that active on social media anyways? that was her only mention of the team throughout the two weeks tournament. she posted stories and content within that timeframe but never anything about the team, compared to the other alternates. Not looking to make a mountain out of a molehill just an observation of how the message was 12 Strong with 23 Deep…but it was more like 22 Deep.

Well that doesn’t seem like a reason to write her off lol. For all we know she could’ve been texting with the team regularly. Even so, she showed support just didn’t do it as often as the others which is fine with me. I’m not gonna name names but I’ve seen worse in terms of reactions to being cut.

I'm gonna urge you all not to base your thoughts on what someone thinks/is feeling on their social media.

Please provide a ranking of the 11 left off the roster, sorted by Team USA social media interaction during the games to substantiate your allegation that Carlini is the 11th man out. Since apparently we’re going with the Gen Z mentality of “you have no value to me if you don’t fawn over me on social media”. Ridiculous.
