Tennessee coach Kim Caldwell gets one-year extension

Tennessee women’s basketball coach Kim Caldwell agreed to a one-year contract extension with the school on Monday following a successful debut season.

The school announced the deal, which will keep Caldwell in Knoxville through March 31, 2030.

“From our first meeting with Kim, it was clear that she is a groundbreaking innovator destined to lead the future of women’s basketball,” athletic director Danny White said. “In just one season, we experienced firsthand how her winning formula can revolutionize the game with her dynamic, high-octane offense and relentless defense. The promising future of Lady Vols basketball is in great hands under Kim’s leadership, setting the stage for a remarkable journey ahead!”

Caldwell led the Lady Vols to a 24-10 overall record (8-8 Southeastern Conference) in her first season at the helm of the storied program. That included two wins in the NCAA Tournament this March before a Sweet 16 loss to conference rival Texas.

Tennessee reached as high as No. 11 in the national rankings during the 2024-25 season, defeating four ranked opponents while advancing to the program’s 37th Sweet 16.

The Lady Vols have now appeared in 43 straight tournaments in non-COVID seasons, a national record.

“I am grateful for Danny’s continued trust and belief in me after a foundational first season here at Tennessee,” Caldwell said. “I am very proud of our players and staff for the effort they put in and for what we accomplished together. I look forward to getting back to work, finding ways we can improve our program and continuing to take the steps necessary to compete for championships.”

Tennessee won national championships in 1987, 1989, 1991, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2007 and 2008, but hasn’t advanced beyond a regional final since former Hall of Fame coach Pat Summitt retired following the 2011-12 season.

Caldwell previously coached at Marshall. In her only season guiding the Thundering Herd, she led them to a school record in wins (26), the Sun Belt title and their first NCAA Tournament appearance since 1997. She previously coached at her alma mater of Glenville State, helping it win the Division II national championship while being named the recipient of the Pat Summitt Trophy as the WBCA NCAA Division II National Coach of the Year for the 2021-22 season.

Caldwell replaced Kellie Harper, who was fired after five seasons, 108 wins and four consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances while coaching at her alma mater.
