Tennessee women's basketball coach Pat Summitt was a legend in her own time.*
Summitt is the winningest coach — man or woman — in all of Division I college basketball. She coached the Lady Volunteers for 38 years before retiring in 2012, winning six championships in a span of 12 years and eight overall. But she preached more to her players than just winning,*each of her four-year players graduated with a degree.
