Marta Karolyi – very fair

When people complain about Marta as U.S. National Team coordinator, it begs the question:

If not her, who?

When Marta retires after the London Olympics, she’s suggested Valeri Liukin should take over.

I’d be happy with that. But will he want to stop coaching his personal group after 2012? … Valeri is a young man, just turned age-44. (Nastia got him an iPhone 4.)

Fact is, the U.S.A. has been very successful under Marta. In Rotterdam, Team U.S.A. preparation looked masterful compared with Russia and China who both looked sloppy and disorganized, at times.

What do the National Coaches think of Marta Karolyi, the camps and National Team program?

Kelli Hill has been through the best and the worst. I respect her opinion.
