Seriously, y'all thinking that Dan Fisher or Dani Busboom can compete with international coaches is delusional. I’d genuinely like to hear who you think are good choices. Not saying I disagree with you but you just seem to hate like 99% of suggestions on here (every other thread too lol) but I’m genuinely curious who you think it should be since you seem to have such strong opinions about other people thoughts they do that about everyone in every thread lol |

I just want to hear their suggestions since everything anybody else has to say is apparently such an awful idea. I want him to enlighten us with his extraordinary volleyball mind  |

I will not accept this slander. USA-A Team hasn't won the NORCECA Championship last two times they tried (this is the event that actually matters and does count for World Rankings). I think they meant the U-events lol Ok, fine, I had to go a little further back to find one, but, there's always a 5-setter somewhere around Logan Eggleston, Ella May Powell, Brooke Nuneviller, Haley Warner, Brooklyn Schirmer, Kendall Kipp, Serena Gray, Skylar Fields. |

Not saying I disagree with you but you just seem to hate like 99% of suggestions on here (every other thread too lol) but I’m genuinely curious who you think it should be since you seem to have such strong opinions about other people thoughts I’ll be happy to post something lengthier. Just give me a few hours cuz I’m headed out right now.stanfordvb (or anyone interested) here it is: In terms of a replacement for Karch, my basic criteria are: Must have international experience, have a stable, concrete vision and approach, but not too inflexible, be a program builder (which means being player centered, emphasizing training, physical and personal development), and no outside jobs. There are only a handful of USA coaches with any amount of significant international coaching experience at the senior/pro level. And fewer with any amount of head coach experience. So disagreeing with the above suggestions isn't very difficult. But I start out with the question of why is Speraw publicly limiting the applicant pool in the first place? I don't know the answer, but it could be intentional or unintentional. It could be philosophical ("I want US coaches to coach our National Teams") or it could be because he's not familiar enough with international coaches on the women's side, and feels more comfortable with an "internal" choice. But he doesn't have to state any of this publicly. He could simply post the job, interview and select whomever he wants and make the announcement. There is no real urgency to fill this position because USA is already qualified for the 28 Games, NCAA is in season, pro seasons are just getting started, and there is plenty of time to get someone onboard. I think that the long term view is most important, and I would not have an issue with some type of transition coach being appointed who could build a cadre of coaches, align the coaching in the USAV developmental programs, and pave the way for a longer term Head Coach appointment (this could benefit both NT's, assuming Karch only stays one quad). I think Hugh could do this, or someone like Velasco (although his English isn't great), Selinger or maybe an Italian or Brazilian). |

Lang Ping would be an excellent choice. I also like me some Italian coaches. If we are limited to American candidates, Dan Fisher would be the correct choice. Whether he would accept and leave Pitt is the question. So, you think having a bunch of physical athletes who can’t close in the Finals is the correct choice? I think there are some highly qualified international coaching candidates out there. As Speraw doesn't appear to be interested in pursuing that option, the USA is restricted to selecting a new coach from a pool of good, but not exceptional, candidates. |

Not saying I disagree with you but you just seem to hate like 99% of suggestions on here (every other thread too lol) but I’m genuinely curious who you think it should be since you seem to have such strong opinions about other people thoughts This is a common issue on this board. For example, when individuals share their top 25 lists, create mock brackets, suggest POW, etc., there is often outrage or criticism. As a previous member of the VT Top 25 poll group, I found this particularly annoying. Many people consider themselves 'experts' and like to tear down the suggestions of others without offering any alternative ideas. They should first try to do what the other person did and then provide constructive criticism. |

When Brad Rostratter gets hired as the HC and makes Avery Skinner play as a 6-rotation MB
I wish they would just hire a foreign coach before trying someone in the USAV pipeline

Do people just forget Tama Miyashiro exists, or is there something about her I should know? Yes. Care to elaborate? |
