Do you know something?!?! they removed kcook as captain last vnl because they wanted it back to larson. But kcook wasnt happy. I’m sure it’s Robinson-Cook being unhappy not playing behind Larson. Karch has shown that he won’t, and probably shouldn’t play them both at the same time. Larson has consistently taken the one spot that Krob can play.

Will he take both, he needs a terminal hitter and the OPPS are both inconsistent...

The USA National Team season is dead, avid 2.0 . Didn't you watch the VNL?! It's NCAA szn! (Thanks for the update. Looking forward to roster speculations.) So the wide roster is (I think) S: Carlini, Hancock, Evans Opp: JT, Drews, Cuttino OH: Larson, Krob, Lanier, Skinner, Plummer, Frantti MB: Ogbogu, Washington, Rettke, Stevenson, Butler L: JWO, Hentz Five to be "cut". I forgot US loses their best mb to the NCAA 😵💫 ughhh

Kim Hill did a podcast with Karsta... oomph.. lol "I made the Olympic roster because im a good teammate, not because im a good player"... #justiceforSWP open.spotify.com/episode/1ioQkeQFj5NHDThhR0GijT?si=VSm0FsBNRAutlQyqSM1nRwIt's a really good podcast.. Shes talks about a lot... the highs and lows of the NT (but without the tea)... leaving volleyball, why coaching isnt for her... what she wants to do moving forward She's moving into interior design. Ugh! I want to know what the drama was all about. Sounds like there was a lot of friction between players and with the coaching staff. I don't get the sense this had anything to do with injuries. It certainly gives a little color to the fact that some of the roster choices were questionable. I still believe that friction and drama between players on a team is a good indicator of a coach who doesn't have a nuance or flexible approach to interpersonal relationship building. Where did you get that there was a lot of friction between players?

Yes I know - but none of the above indicates there was friction. Am I missing something?

Kim Hill was very forthcoming; she did not mince words, and Karsta Lowe confirmed what was being said from her personal experience. I listened to Karsta's podcast featuring Kim in its entirety and was surprised at some of the things Kim said. But that's all behind her now. She's off to find a new way of life to enjoy!

Where did you get that there was a lot of friction between players? I dont know if it was necessarily friction... but there were problems within the group in 2020... so much that a sports psychologist was brought in (And retained) They dont go into details... and probably wont (see: Logan and Destinee)...

Thank you cards to Evans, Cuttino, Skinner (shouldn't), Stevenson, and Butler, imo.
