so sad news:Lady Vols coach besides Kim Caldwell….

Here’s who Tennessee fans told Danny White to hire as Lady Vols coach besides Kim Caldwell

Lady Vols fans suggested Kim Mulkey, Dawn Staley and even high school coaches to replace Kellie Harper in emails they sent to Tennessee athletics director Danny White before he hired Kim Caldwell.

Emails sent to White’s official UT account were obtained by Knox News through an open records request.Some were eye-opening, profane and at times comical. But they represented a snippet of the enormous Lady Vols fan base.

In the first wave, a small subset of furious UT fans insulted White for firing Harper on April 1. Some focused on the fact that White was a man firing a female coach, albeit terribly misspelling misogyny in their rage.
