Huh? How would being in an easy conference be anything but a huge help to the next UConn coach? Bet my bottom dollar Kim Caldwell wishes she was any conference other than the SEC.

Because if you've noticed, all the "good" players gravitate to the Big 10 and SEC. You think someone like Blakes would've picked the Big East even if Ralph was there? The only reason UCONN is elite is because of Geno. After Geno, I don't care who they hire, UCONN will fall into mediocrity...because of the Big East. JMO. We shall see.

I think it would be a terrible idea for her to go there. She’s building something special in Tennessee and she’s a southern girl.

We’ve seen how following a legend goes first hand. I pity whoever follows in Geno’s footsteps.

She would be totally different from the coaches we've hired. She has taken a program far above it's normal status in the toughest conference. But she very well may want to stay in the South and husband helping coach. She will probably be successful if she stays put or whatever she may go . Hopefully we can land one as equal or better than her.

The Lady Vols have been irrelevant in the Regional Finals since Coach Summitt left the program. I don't think Coach Caldwell is the answer, but she deserves a chance to see her offense click with players who want to play in it and not just paid mercenaries from other schools. I feel she deserves at least 1-2 more years. She took a team to the Sweet 16 last year with a big win over the eventual national champion.

Coach admitted she overestimated her ability to coach P4 players. In the portal age we live in now, the scare tactics and public embarrassing don't always get the expected result.

I would give CKC one more year, which she will receive anyway, to improve and bring her coaching up to top Power 4 standards. In any case, she needs to show marked improvement over the current year. She starts next year on the super red hot seat. If she can not stand the heat, she needs to hit the road.

That guy needs a full "cease and desist" from the Athletic Department: people like him are the reason ADs like Danny double down on their hires

He was close to that with Kellie's staff. They warned parents not to interact with him and by all means not to let him "train" their daughters. He has an insatiable need to actually interact with players that folks around here have battled with him about for years. Totally incapable of distinguishing between the made up world of social media fandom and the actual real life program.

,A one hour meeting with a flunky at Panera Bread Danny, doesn't that qualify me for a job? Cracked me up!

And his big reveal so far is that the players were completely out of control and had no respect for Kim and she had zero ability to do anything about it. And apparently only listend to one member of her staff, her best pal Jenna.

Wow color me shocked!

I can save you "potential new coaches" a lot of basement time.
CKC will be the HC next year , not trying being mean just the facts.
Accept it and go to bed. Its a waste of your time, a lesson in futility, ☮️

Y’all, all this time I assumed he was just kidding around to continue the long-running joke “I can be there tomorrow.”

He was not joking. OMG. I actually feel sorry for him now because it’s obvious he has some major mental health issues. For him to believe that just because he has coached some rec league kids and done some private training of some kids that he would actually be a legitimate candidate to take over the Tennessee Lady Vols, well… 😳

The man is unwell and I hope once all this settles that someone in his life cares enough about him to get him the help he needs. Gosh. I still can’t believe what I just read.

Here it is, it was in another thread. He states that he is releasing his “expose’“ at 5 PM on March, 24. That was three hours ago. If it is on X I won’t see it unless somebody copies it to VN, I don’t Twitter. You know it is bound to be great comedy wrapped in tragedy. In other words, must read stuff he he..

Yeah I saw that. I assumed it was just a snippet of his “expose’”. It was always bound to be unsatisfying I suppose given the source. Nothing burger that is written so poorly you would swear a kid in middle school was the author. Guys like him need to be watched closely imo.
