Kim Caldwell (Rookie Coach of the Year-WBCA) is named Head Coach of Iconic Lady Vols WBB

I have to say I’m very curious as to whether we can hit 200 before the coach is announced.

200 tonight…

 

[OrangeInKy]

So many people already mad about a hire that hasn’t been made and a person that probably isn’t remotely in contention. Entertainment.

 

[creekdipper]

I was wondering the same

They did seem to have an uncanny resemblance to each other.

 

[Checker_the_Shire]

My questions is how do you know she isnt an upgrade if it is her? I mean you wait to see how the team looks. Heupel coaching ability was obvious game one with what he did with less. You have to take a wait and see approach. Not a scorched earth one.

CJH had a much stronger resume when we hired him than Stephens does. Plus, he and DW had a prior relationship, which means DW knew what and who he was getting.

Idk if this is legit but another place stating the same

It’s not legit

OSU physically and mentally beat Tennessee from the start

Wasn’t that the team that pressed us a couple years ago and our guards had problems getting the ball across half court?

That's the reason for the delay if we hit 300, Freak has to contribute $300k in the LV NIL fund

Did something happen between Brenda and Candace?

Yes, after Candace either committed or signed ( can’t remember) with Tennessee Brenda kept trying to get Candace to Maryland. Candace called her out on it. No love lost.
Also, Pat felt Brenda tampered with one of our players, a guard, who did end up transferring to Maryland.

Thank you! Wasn't sure.

Just trying to share what has come across my Twitter.

 

[madtownvol]

Wouldn’t be holding a grudge IF true. Would I be disappointed till I saw that she could win (and recruit) big at this level? Absolutely and unapologetically.

You and most of the wcbb world. The dominant narrative would be “you fired Kellie Harper for WHO??????”

 

[Hooper22]

The fact her name is CALDWELL and all these reports can’t even get it correct shows me how ridiculous this is.

Ancient history. Getting Freese would be a coup.

That’s should tell everyone all they need to know.

That was Wiley-gatewood. Turned out Freese did Pat a favor.

Yeah, she just likely cost us a ninth title. No big deal.

?

Top recruits are signing with programs that have never been power teams the last few years. Nil and the prestige of playing for a blue blood program will attract players regardless of who the coach is.

So UConn has all this signing bonus money to sign 3 top 20 recruits

Duke has the money for 2 top 20 recruits

UCLA has the money for 3 top 25 recruits

USC has the money to sign 3 top 25 recruits.

But we don’t have the money to sign even one, yea whatever.

 

[OrangeInKy]

That’s should tell everyone all they need to know.

They didn’t get the memo that She got married last spring.

 

[airvols]

I hope all these reports are false and other programs are just messing with our fans.

 

[OrangeInKy]

We have our coach. I’m not close enough to know who and I’m not getting answers, but it’s done. As I said two days ago, we’ll hear next week.

What the reason for delay? Not taking the spotlight this weekend? Being the main story next week?

 

[madtownvol]

I hope all these reports are false and other programs are just messing with our fans.

Multiple sources are reporting that Caldwell has signed a “will coach for food ’ contract with Tennessee. So I think it checks out….

Pro tip: Twitter “reporters” with less than a thousand followers won’t break news on an SEC coaching hire.

This year they beat us badly from the start.Beat us last year too pretty soundly

She would be a black eye for our program forever!

Preach!

Yes she did, Pat won two more nattys with Shannon Bobbit taking Wiley-Gatewood's spot.
