Tennessee and men’s basketball head coach Rick Barnes announced the hiring of Justin Caldwell on Friday.
Caldwell will serve as the Vols’ player development coordinator.
“We are pleased to add Justin to our staff here at Tennessee,” Barnes said. “He possesses a strong basketball mind and has shown the ability to develop young people. Justin’s passion and coaching acumen will assuredly assist our program on a daily basis.”
Caldwell served as head coach at Glenville State University from 2018-23.
“I am thrilled to join the University of Tennessee men’s basketball staff,” Caldwell said. “It is a true privilege to work under someone like Rick Barnes, not only due to his immense success as a coach, but also because of who he is as a person. I cannot wait to get to work with this talented team and do all I can to help this excellent program continue its success.”
