Besides the stats, the eye test doesn't agree with this narrative. I’m sorry but you can eye test all you want but she was bad offensively. That’s fact. She did the other things well but she was abysmal on offense Sorry, I didn't see the "offensive" before "statline". She looked good in the first 2 sets; after that she looked anemic.

She did the other things well but she was abysmal on offense I thought she did good sets 1 and 2, and broke down a bit set 3. still miles better than what kp would've done.

The truth will come out against Turkey. There won't be long rallies with Vargas and Karakurt hitting out of system. Passing is going to be critical so we'll see who not named Cook can stand up to being targeted by Vargas and friends. Is this the first time since Tokyo that we've got to the semi's.

Is it different starter against turkey? I can either see possible same but if Lanier struggles with defense Franti or Skinner in Santarelli will be seeing her new OH combo in conegliano. Kcook-Lanier.

Wait did AMA really say Khalia has never worn a USA jersey before this VNL?😳 I’m so late but yup. That’s why Lanier is just even more so impressive to me this year in the vnl. Skinner has at least been on a pan am roster (not trying to take anything away from her cus she’s !!!!###$$$!!!in amazing and will be in paris). But every Lanier Stan knows that it took too long for her to get in the usa gym lmao

I agree exept that i'm confused why frantti is inconsistent and not disciplined? Lol she was literally entered half of 4th set and helping the team. She is erratic with her hitting sometimes with no control (it's about being smart), Skinner was really the difference maker. Just checking in. How many times does Franti have to prove herself? She passed great, good defense, and took great swings against Turkey as well.
