Default Pat Summitt dies

Embarrassed at how little I knew about this legendary Lady Vols coach. She was only 64.

Ya, the last couple days I've learned so much about Summit. Was a great figure for equality in sports. Dementia is horrible, but at such a young age it's really tragic

Dementia is horrible.

Buddy Ryan died today too, not a good day for coaches.

Did I read correctly that every one of her players graduated from college? If so, that's phenomenal.

The Ladies coach at Wichita State played at Tennessee, Jody Adams.

Another amazing stat that Coach Adams mentioned: Every 4 year player Summitt had at Tennessee played in the Final Four at least once. That's insane.
