Yea younglings, feel the kumbaya. Give in to your feel goods. Let go of all those who don’t repost your latest insta story. I understand shading excessive stress on team comradery (i.e., kumbaya) when the team is losing, but I feel like team USA has been in a really good place the last year, even with all the new faces, so the criticism doesn't have the same effect these days. If anything, I'd be shading Italy's lack of comradery sometimes, which costs them matches. Agree. One of the biggest reasons Karch’s team won Olympic gold last year and the 2012 team lost that gold is the comradery and the lack of. Some of you pick on him and his this particular aspect is because you have lost all the other aspects to pick on now that he’s already the most decorated woman’s volleyball coach in US history by leading em to first World Champion and Olympic Gold. He can win nothing from now on and still be remembered as that first volleyball player and coach.

No one shades the Italian men's lack of comradery. Girls need to get along, men can argue and it's all okay. Not sure why Karch is reinforcing that outdated stereotype. curious, have you watched the Italian men recently? what makes you think they have a lack of comradery? No, I have not watched the Italian men since the Olympics, but this was a commentary on the double standard between what we expect of men and women on the court and off. Zaytsev was not hugging his teammates when they made an error. People generally expect and forgive competitiveness that borders on self-centeredness in men, not women. Karch takes it to another level.

High performance, successful teams are not built around “kumbaya”, especially at the professional (all volunteer) level. Conversely, these teams do not fail to meet their goal due to a lack of it. I’ve been in the company of lions, tigers, and bears to know that itz not enough to be popular around the campfire, to get the result.
