so is the consensus that Courtney will be libero? I know she isn't an elite attacker but she looks good on her Italian team! No she doesn’t.

I’m cautiously optimistic this quad. At least next quad we will see a whole new wave of young talent in the gym. I look forward to watching them develop. It might be a rebuilding quad but come 2028 when we host the games that elusive gold might finally be with in grasp. Cubs fans all understand the “wait til next year” mantra, but wait til 9 years from now seems a little much! Bringing up the younger players earlier than expected won them a World Series, and is worth a shot in 2020.

Bringing up the younger players earlier than expected won them a World Series, and is worth a shot in 2020. I completely agree. But Karch doesn’t seem to like to make changes. I think he chooses who he wants to invest in during the first year of both quads. In 2013 it was Hill, Lowe, Murphy, Robinson, Dixon, Adams, etc....in 2017 he chose Wilhite, Kingdon, Courtney, Happ, Papp, MBH, Drews, Hancock, Carlini, etc.... Lowe tried out in 2013 but didn’t start playing with the NT until she was done with college. I think the system of waiting for post collegiate athletes to gain a few years of experience overseas before inviting them to the NT gym is a good one....even though it reduces the amount of time they are in their prime while playing in the USA jersey. Many of the athletes that are trying out this late in this quad might not suit up until 2021. That is the reality. I don’t like it but it is where we are under Karch. He believes his choices are correct and that he can mold them into winners. Not discard them when they have one bad tournament.

So...what's your ideal roster for Tokyo vs the more realistic roster you expect at Tokyo?

Ideal:
S: ??, ?? OH: Larson, Hill, Robinson, ?? MB: Akinradewo, ??, ?? OPP: Lowe, ?? L: ??
Expect:
S: Lloyd, Hancock OH: Larson, Hill, Bartsch, ?? MB: Akinradewo, ??, ?? OPP: Lowe, Murphy L: Robinson
Lots of question marks because the ideal players don’t have the experience yet. Some combination of Carlini, Lee, Ogbogu, Washington, and hey, why not invite Fawcett back?
