Most people would be better serve to remember that if you read it on the internet its not necessarily true and if you read it on VT it is most likely untrue.

Volleytalk can be shut down now. Coach Carlston has the greatest first post by a new poster in the history of the board.
I'll never be able to poke fun of a coach again, for fear that they'll respond.

This is Geoff from OSU. I appreciate so many people in this amazing volleyball community. In many ways it is like a family. With such bad things happening in the world I challenge us to be better and have meaningful conversations. I absolutely include myself in this first and foremost. I hope this is a step in the right direction. [ Coach, as I mentioned above, thank you for an awesome post and clarifying some things from your end. Your last paragraph particularly struck me and I agree with you. Most of us on VT agree with you and are up to the challenge to make our community better. Would you and other high profile coaches be willing to abide by an agreement to not support or deal with a club (or its supporters) if a club owner/coach/Director has admitted to having sexual relations with one or more of their players? Now that would make us a better community and take you from posting for personal reasons to a community arc angel!

Coach Carlston with the mic drop.
Bravo, Coach. That took guts.

Pepperdine surely thought they would be getting better than 6th,8th and 7th place in the WCC standings in three seasons.

Does this thread exist yet? Mick Haley, USC, it's time. With a 2nd place PAC finish, and given his lack of depth in the middle, I don't think it's necessarily Mick that is a problem. 2011, 2013, and 2015 were seasons where many thought USC was going to win the national championship. Injuries and off the court issues hurt him. I think people are always way too hard on Mick.

He seems to have lost control of things and the years of locker room/off-court issues were pretty indicative of that. I could see him taking an emeritus role somewhere in the department (I think he has earned that), but I think it's time for him to hang it up.

Agreed, and it seemed that the admin was also coming around to that point of view earlier in the season. But the tone appears to have softened, and I think there is some willingness, in some quarters, to give him an opportunity to leave on slightly more favorable terms of his own making.
