Coach Kim Caldwell assembled a 13‑player transfer class in just over three weeks, adding key scorers, defenders and shooters to address last season’s weaknesses.

A 0-2 start gave way to ten consecutive victories, a Heisman nod for Jeremiyah Love, and a quarterback of the future in CJ Carr, yet the Irish were edged out by Miami for the final playoff spot.

The Lady Vols have added 13 transfers and two freshmen, a class that USA TODAY ranks ninth in the nation and second in the SEC, featuring standout players like Kaylene Smikle, Naomi White, Fatmata Janneh and Kennedy Fauntleroy.
