Agreed. The fact that she's stuck it out with a tough coach like Robyn tells me that she got some thick skin. I be critiquing her on the wide but when it's all said and done, I'm gonna miss her. I think the players have bought into the coaching style. Robyn has done a good job in instilling toughness but also showing them motherly love too. If you ride players hard but outside the court, you treat them kindly, the players will respond and accept it. If you’re a jerk on and off the court, then it’s a different story. I’ve seen the players rib Robyn at other arena events and Robyn just laugh it off. Deep down, I think most if not all of the players respect the heck out of Robyn. She is a single mother of 2 kids, one with special needs and also coaching a bunch of young ladies at the D1 level and into a decent team, that is a tough job. There was a video a few months back where the players were asked what were their favorite “Robynism”. It was hilarious. A coach the allows for her players to goof on her is someone players can accept. www.instagram.com/reel/C-tRsRhSrSo/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==Totally agree. But it's different being a setter under Robyn. Mama will ride you like a beat.

If I was a setter, I would hope to get a the chance to be coached by a setter who played in the Olympics. You must gain a lot of experience and knowledge to be coached by a setter who reached the highest level of volleyball in the world.
