It’s interesting to watch this interview versus one like coach yo or Joni Taylor. The broadcasters are cracking jokes and it looks so comfortable for both parties. This looks the complete opposite.

To be fair to all of them, it's damn awkward. She's having a historically horrible season and several off court public controversies all at the same time. Obviously there are elephants in the room. I thought they all did a good job given all that.

Some people take making up drama to another level on this forum.
Man the people are laughing during this interview. There’s literally nothing to see. Each of them laughing and just doing their job not being fake or trying to feed into false narratives about the demise of 1 of only 2 historic WBB programs of all-time Tennessee. Look I don’t particularly like her system and style of play.
It’s no secret but at Tennessee it’s definitely worth seeing this season how it’ll evolve. In the end, in this interview there’s nothing to see. No fake awkwardness.
I mean nothing to see beyond a normal on camera interview that shows Coach Caldwell authentic personality.
The broadcasters and Coach Caldwell also seem pretty engaged during the interview and listening to the responses of each other to follow up.
Some folks on here please go outside and touch grass my goodness…

My thoughts exactly. Folks, have a little patience. This young lady is a diamond in the rough as a coach at this level but seems to be a quick learner.
To me, she gives the best interviews of all the coaches I get to see. Most of the "big ones" always seem to be guarding what they say and are trying to be everything to everybody. Kim, on the other hand, just seems to be "off the cuff" which comes across for me as great. Not like the 'big ones" who strive to be politicly correct.(so to speak)

It was a light hearted interview nothing to see there. I hate the late game as much as the coaches, but ready to see us win.

The job of the interviewers in this setting is not to generate, percolate, or isolate a controversial headline.
Their only task is to shine a positive light on the SEC, its teams, its programs, and its coaches, and to entice viewers to keep watching.

That said, nothing looked fake about it. The coaches are getting to talk to a unique group of interviewers--people who truly understand the challenges of their job, even to the minutiae of how many minutes can the team healthily spend in their hotel rooms.

Let's go shine* tonight, Lady Vols!


*...so we can entice a generous sponsor to brand our jerseys next year!

When you’re reaching historical lows for the Lady Vols, all these things get hyper analyzed. That’s 100% on Kim. We didn’t do it.

Who gives a crap about communicating with the media. She needs to communicate better with the players, and so far, that is not evident.

Tbf, it’s a huge part of the job. I liked that she was candid with a few of her answers. I’ve never been on the Kim train, but I can say (as someone who does communications for a living) that she’s doing a much better job with this aspect lately. Does it mean much in the midst of a 6 game losing streak? Nah. Lol, but I’ll give her credit where/when credit is due.
