Kim Caldwell was introduced as Tennessee’s women’s basketball head coach on Tuesday. She is the fourth head coach for the Lady Vols during the NCAA era, joining Pat Summitt, Holly Warlick and Kellie Harper.
“What an incredible honor it is to be the head coach of the Tennessee Lady Vols,” Caldwell said. “Danny White, thank you for believing in me. You have an incredible track record of selecting head coaches, and I appreciate being a part of the list. Chancellor Donde Plowman, thank you for taking time to visit with me and listen to me, and thank you for everything you do for our program and this university.
“Marshall Steward and Angie Boyd-Keck, you guys have been by my side every step of the way, and you’ve made this transition for me seamless, and I already feel like I am home because of you two. All of you guys are great, but did you hear that Peyton Manning texted me? I do really feel welcomed here, and I appreciate that so much.”
