This season I didn't watch NCAA, but I saw that Jess Mruzic got the MVP. Never heard of her. Is she NT material? Are there any new interesting players who maybe will take a call in summer?

She was the 2019 U18 WCH MVP.
I expect all of the new LOVB players in the NT camp (either with the A team or the Pan Am teams)

i think the question there is, does she want it? there was tension between the staff and the players post VNL, OG, and then the end of the season....
If they're through the American candidates and are looking intl, I think that means she doesnt want it... or wasn't considered...
Wow, what does the tension mean? I thought they were all good.

karch's move to the men's team was not voluntary... i'll leave it at that.

Jamie Davis left a ticking time bomb as he left and forced Karch into the men's team?
Or was it Speraw?

dramaaaaa
the men's team seemed super stoked to have Karch leading them.

i dont think its necessarily drama.
I think everyone realized it was time for change.... the good result is paris was just unexpected and not a result of the bigger picture (the whole paris quad)
it's not like he's a bad coach per se.... it's just time to move on (and start a new culture within the program)

I smell tea... Has this been discussed elsewhere?

They hired Erik Sullivan.
what a completely uninspired and unqualified hire.
I guess its fitting since Speraw isnt even qualified to be CEO.

Who do you think from the Olympic roster will be part of next cycle? Larson, Drews and Cook are out right?
-
Done: Larson, Kelsey, Carlini, Annie
Probably done: Hancock, Washington, Frantti (these are based on vibes)
Continuing: Skinner, Rettke (not olympic but also Lanier, O'Neal, Butler, Hentz, Fleck, Stevenson)
Probably continuing: JWO, Ogbogu, Poulter, Plummer, Thompson
Plummer talked about only playing one Olympic games in a podcast before. Poulter, you never know with her knee. JWO/Chi could do either. LA would be a home olympics for JWO

i am still looking for any tea regarding bajema and specially frantti girl! I am hoping they change their mind and play now that cook/larson are done! Frantti was obviously demotivated after that announcement lol i hope she gets it together and come back strong but also she might be thinking your effort and dedication to the team is not enough. You need to be the favorite of the coach to make to the roster. jk 😁 😅

Bajema? You really hate USA that much?

-
what tea is there? they were both obviously mad after being excluded from A-team/Olympic rosters.
Frantti was going to be done after Paris anyways. And USAV has no need for Kara anymore (unless she decides she wants to play volleyball again)
USAv has four years to get Skinner/Plummer/Lanier/Franklin/Mruzik/whoever else ready for LA. They dont need Bajema or Frantti.

they just need to have a good season before the olympic to make to the roster so if bajema and frantti play well in 2027 they'll have chance to make it? I mean larson didn't play in club but played in vnl. Jt didn't played good in vakifbank but made the roster?
There is a high chance skinner sisters will be there in LA28 others are just not sure.

JT made the roster because the other option was Cuttino lol
I would be more surprised if they're both still playing in 2027 than if they were playing well in 2027 lol
By 2027 you'll have the strongest group of today's NCAA players in their first/second pro season... there's not going to be room

You can't say that. Larson can still play!
