They spelled Tayyiba’s last name wrong in the press release. lol And didn’t mention she is a three-time Olympian (2004, 2008, 2012) who earned silver medals in ‘08 and ‘12 with Team USA.

I understand it wasn't an announcement specifically about Tayyiba, but if you want to be considered a REAL pro volleyball league, shouldn't you at least spell the name of the only coach who was actually a real pro volleyball player correctly? * and they spelled her first name right, which is usually the difficult one to get right. lol

And she has quite a pedigree to help promote the PVF league. This is especially important in light of Olympians aligning with other leagues at this time.

She says right off the start that she’s been told there will be eight teams in the first season, one in Texas and she’s not sure of the final location.

Better tag uofaGRAD and winesalotIt's not clear that she has info other than what has been the standard messaging. Apparently, she lives in the US. She says she asked her agent to focus on opportunities closer to home, and better yet, "at home", and the PVF was therfore like a god send. She also talked about her experience with male and female head coaches, the distinction being more empathy from female coaches for personal things (she mentioned menstruation specifically), but she wouldn't characterize one as better, just different.
