Three early lessons from the Lady Vols' exhibition against Florida A&M

Rocky Top Insider offered three quick takeaways from the Lady Vols' exhibition against Florida A&M, focusing on what could be learned from Tennessee's showing. The game was an early test of a team still taking shape under head coach Kim Caldwell.

In a preseason setting, what is learned tends to be about identity as much as execution. How Tennessee shared the court, settled into its approach and responded across the exhibition provides a first reference point, even if the details will keep evolving once the regular season starts.

The Lady Vols will carry those lessons forward. Exhibitions do not define a season, but they do reveal where a team stands at the starting line, and Tennessee now has game film of itself to build from.
