Lol, we lose a couple games and y’all start screaming like the sky is falling. Take a breathe, we’ll be fine.

I can’t believe I’m saying this (I can because this is the second time I’ve said it but still), I want to just SEE what a lineup with KRook and Larson looks like now. this whole week we were way too reliant on our outsides because our passing was SOOOOOO bad. even if Kelsey and Larson were able to hit around .200, that would be incredible if we were actually able to use our middles and JT. Not with our opposites playing so poorly and the setting being anti-middle even in favorable situations carlini could’ve set the middle a few extra times today (I’m remember at least one quick and a slide to both Chi and Asjia), but at least she got them somewhat involved today, especially Asjia on the slide. Hancock… man idk what happened. she’s gone from being the best USA setter when it came to middles to the worst. I have no clue. it’s mind boggling |

She really didn’t. She posted a story congratulating Poland and named two specific players, Magda and Korneluk. Absolutely no shade! Bricio isn’t like that nor would she even try starting a feud. |

Lol, we lose a couple games and y’all start screaming like the sky is falling. Take a breathe, we’ll be fine. It's not a couple games. It didn't look pretty. It was also USA losing the Quarterfinals of the VNL in 2022. USA also didn't shine at the 2022 World Champs. Also comparatively, to the state of other national teams, it's not like the level of volleyball is sky-high right now and USA still isn't getting it done. |

Because i don't think that's the only issue because both of them are the same player. No one can kill an oos and you can't rely on the opposite too. |

It’s not like we’re in last place, finishing 4th is still impressive. Do I think there are things that could have been done differently? Yes! However, hopefully the team (specifically Karch) learns from its mistakes and makes adjustments. |

JT can score OOS when she’s on like she was at Milano towards the end. |

Avery was 15-2-29 (.448)
same amount of swings as Kelsey.
like in no world is that a winning strategy.
