The roster construction as it sits for next season is…. ELITE. Everything is literally falling into place. I still say grab 1 or 2 6’3+ mobile bigs at least one of whom is a rising sophomore and we’re on track for Coach Kim and Company to make runs for years to come. This is insane to see after looking at the roster from the viewpoint of what we saw us having this year and beyond back in like February. Danny did a wonderful job with the hire and she has only proved him right thus far. Love it!

Yup. We’re literally one or two talented post players away from being final four contenders in year TWO.

Back in March, things were looking awful with the departure of Rickea, and some still insisted that we keep the last coach because she had a verbal from a 2025 and 2027 prospect.

What a difference a few months makes 😊

Our targets for 2026 are aiming to meet that need. At least two really talented, versatile forwards I know we are making a big push for.

6’4” Olivia Vukosa. “Big O” can do it all, versatile, handles, shoots. Perfect player for our new system.

And

6’3” Oliviyah Edwards “Big Oh” another extremely talented, versatile, ultra-athletic forward.

Love it!

I do think Big O has a connection to the Pauldo Twins. I’ve seen the twins’ dad shout her out on X.

He really has a great track record for WBB coaching hires at his respective stops. Three for three hiring the right coach at the right time so far.

I believe he hired Coach Jack at Buffalo now at Syracuse and Coach Abe at UCF now UGA. Even though I don’t think they will do great at their P4 schools he hired them at Buffalo and UCF to great success. Hopefully the same happens for Kim.

I believe that White hired Johnny Dawkins at Central Florida.

So if we land them both opposing teams would go “oh, oh”.🙄

This class plus all the returnees, UT should have a top 15 team next season. And all will be athletic!! Very exciting, GBO!!

Or that’s what we yell on post to post passes. Why is your glass half empty Lucy? It’s a great day to be a Lady Vol fan.

So my point was if we landed both, opponents would know they were in big trouble. I guess the better spelling as someone else pointed out was Uh, Oh not Oh, Oh.
Nonetheless any assertion I post as if my glass is half full is ridiculous. You should note my latest post other than “oh, oh” was declaring “What a class!” In response to our latest addition.
You, however, seem to feel the need to tear Kellie down to somehow provide a straw man for our new coach. It is not needed.

One thing is for certain, Coach Kim is working hard to try and return the LVs back to prominence....
