And what a way to end the Q&A session... :laugh:

Ohhhhh snap.  She just won me over with that comment....   :bowrofl:

You could tell by the look on her face after she answered....Adams is now on her sheet list.

We got our answer on her husband
"Giving up his career to chase my dream"

Quite the mike drop, and well deserved by the corndog who thought her hire was a joke (you can look it up) :bird:
I listened to it but to see the look,  :wow:

You guys are too easy. What coach has ever not thought or said what she did. Of course none of them think they are in over their head to begin with. Hope she kills it. Tell me, why her though? Why did the Vols go the cheap route?

We are SUPPORTERS, not HATERS

I like her a lot!

Bless your hearts. -------------------------------------------------------------------

you can?t even get that correct

Who did you want?   

Very impressed, seems very genuine too.    :patriot:    :powert:

Her Marshall team lost to VaTech 92-46 in their NCAA tournament game. Yep, makes me think she was the right choice.  :crazy: Doesn't mean she isn't. Wouldn't it make you feel better if she had a little more of a Div I resume. Glenville State is not like playing in the SEC. I still say they went the cheap route. It's not as desirable of a job as it should be unfortunately. Just have to wait and see and give her everything she needs to excel. Hopefully she can get adequate NIL offers for her players. You know the eventual expectations are to compete with South Carolina and LSU for conference titles. What is a fair timeline to do that? Oh wait, I expect too much don't I?

Figured you would spout that BULLshizzle!
You are as fizzleing CLUELESS as the day is long!

You?re evaluating her on one game?   :loco:

"You guys are too easy."  Exactly what does that mean?  They just said they liked how she handled the presser. Do you think she handled it poorly?

Is there any post above where anyone, I dunno, says "she is the next Pat Summitt", "Final Four here we come", "this is the greatest hire ever!". 

What exactly are you implying?   :dunno:

As for "going the cheap route" I can't answer that on substance without knowing what the going rate for women's basketball coaches is, and I don't care to look it up.

Dropping the "cheap" part.  Danny White stated he found someone with "potentially a very large upside". In other words, he is going for potential, not a proven track record.  That should be obvious.  It might work, it might not, but I love her attitude, intensity, and energy.  And while I love Kellie for what she meant to the Vols and for trying hard, I didn't get that energy from her.

Do I think she is a lock to get us to the FF and hopefully another naty?  No, of course not. That would be idiotic.  Do I like what I have seen so far?  Hell yes!  She had me fired up wanting to see how well she does.  She oozes youthful energy and enthusiasm.  A knock on Kellie was that she is out of touch with todays players (says a player that went to Junior instead).  She gives a vibe of being very in touch with today's players. I like it. I want to see more. Never thought that about Hollie or Kellie.

Danny is swinging for the fences on potential.  I like gambling. Do a fair amount of it.  I think we might just win big.  If not, we can move on to the next try.  I like what I see so far though.
