Enjoyed your post. Kim Caldwell does not seem like the type to put up with weaknesses for long, suspect she fixes them quickly, she is a winner. She will be at UT for a long time unless I am completely wrong, and she may end up the coach of the year for the SEC and perhaps nationally, AD White found a gem. I believe in her. She has that “it” factor if some have not noticed yet.Go Lady Vols! I saw my first Lady Vols game ever against Winthrop and loved it. Heartbreaker vs Oklahoma. I saw them play here against UNLV and they played well. Hopefully the shooting is better against LSU.
I have been surprised in other games (maybe it's because she's expecting) to see that coach C is not all that fired up on the sidelines. I'm into the old school style of coaching (Pat Summit / Bobby Knight so to speak) where the coach isn't afraid to get after a kid or a team. Maybe the game is changing and the kids are 'different.' I'm a teacher so I see that maybe being the reason. Coach C does seem less fiery during games.
Winthrop did expose the long pass downcourt to get behind the press. Many uncontested layups. This team is uber talented but I wonder if it's difficult to be a shooter in that system, especially if you are in a slump. You've got to be on as soon as you step on the court, no playing your way into a game or shooting your way into a game either. The continuous substitutions have to make game flow difficult. Defensively as well. Yes you have fresher legs, but you don't really get a feel for a player you are defending when you are only on the court for short spurts.
I'm supportive and patient of the staff and team, just some questions that popped up as I saw the team play in person for the first time.
PS if you haven't seen the "dress like Kim" video from a recent LSU game, it's pretty comical.
