Coach Kellie Harper fired

[ttharp]

I've dusted off my crystal ball and I can see into the future. I see a young girl, wearing an orange jersey with the No. 3. on it. With a basketball net hung around her shoulders and holding up one finger, to symbolize a national championship, the young girl, named Lailaa, runs to embrace her mother ... and coach.

Candace! Candace! Candace! Candace! Candace! Candace!!!!!!!!!!

I wouldn’t mind Candace being a consultant to Danny as he conducts a search.

That’s as involved as I want CP3 with the LV program right now. (Unless she because recruiting coordinator in a year or two.)

 

[Tnphil]

I don’t have too, because Danny White is going to do it for me!! But I know Kellie name won’t be in the bunch

Yep....That's why Danny White gets paid the big bucks. Not a person on this or any other UT boards will make this hire.

 

[37620VOL]

I will be totally shocked if this hire comes from the Pat Summitt tree. Do not see it.

Kara is trending on Twitter, so idk

She would be smart not to take it.
Why risk ruining her reputation if she fails?

Fortier, probably not enough NCAA success.

husband/wife team. Though I would enjoy it very much around the board if it's another spouse team. And really, if you're going up and comer, they're a little hard to avoid.

Well it can’t get much worse than a Second round exit smh

Au contraire. It can get much worse. And will if we hire yet another mid major or up and comer with our fingers crossed hoping this is the time.

 

[madtownvol]

Why not a "white male?"

I originally read that as "white whale." That choice would have created some logistical problems.

Not gonna get too excited about a BS tweet. Candace Parker who has committed to play one more year and has a great commentating gig?? why propagate such obvious crap.

It’s just an opinion from an actually pretty solid prospect recruiting site. They aren’t clickbait

 

[dillyo51]

Needed to be done. Unfortunate and sad because she is a Lady Vol. Wish her and her family the best.

Need to not hire from the Summit coaching tree.

 

[brockytop]

Seems to me as an outside observer of women’s basketball that this is the right move. Regardless, I love having an aggressive AD pushing every prog to compete at a high level.

X

 

[AntiochVol81]

I wonder how much Hammon is getting paid by Las Vegas. Whatever it is, just double it and get her in Knoxville on the next plane please.

1.1 Million Pay her 3 Million and she will leave..

So did Princess Kate is dead....

 

[backdoorcutvol]

Really liked Kellie Harper, had her team play.ing their best ball at end of season.
wonder if there was any truth where she was asked to shake up her coaching staff and she refused?
list of top notch coaches that will never be considered.
Tina Langley
Molly Miller
Kim Stephens

god i hope not.

Eye gouging basketball and 8th place in the ACC yeah a HOMERUN

 

[Dainfluencer8]

I mean do you want a “cookie” or “cake” for stating the obvious?? Opinions are like a-holes!! Move on

 

[VolBall09]

Please use one of the 3-4 threads already available on this topic. We don’t need a new thread for each new opinion.

 

[Tnphil]

Kara is trending on Twitter, so idk

Still don't see it....and of course many UT fans will put crap out on Twitter...boards etc. I don't believe any of it until it comes out of our ADs mouth.

 

[madtownvol]

It’s just an opinion from an actually pretty solid prospect recruiting site. They aren’t clickbait

Fair enough but that specific list is crap....

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Kara hasn't proven enough to get the job.
You're basically getting Kelly again

 

[Dainfluencer8]

She’s getting paid to not coach. She will be just fine counting money.

Congrats on getting paid to not coach!! Maybe that’s why she was fired, it’s time to FINALLY start coaching, but carry on accountant!!

 

[LUVMESUMVOL]

I don’t want Kara Lawson of Jeff Walz. If Danny hires either of them, that would let me know he hasn’t been watching the games.

Insell coached circles around Walz. Kara and her offense… just no.

I love Scott Rueck from an Xs and Os perspective. He doesn’t have enough personality for me though. We need personality, culture, flair, AND Xs and Os.

I hope Danny consults Candace Parker.

Tamika Catchings also

 

[VolFuture]

Fair enough but that specific list is crap....

Oh I agree 100%

 

[Lucy]

Certainly has to be considered. I’m not sure what the detractors have against her.

No offense and finished I believe 7th in ACC( believe I read that!
