As an aside, I can speak from experience on two things 1. the LV academic program/requirements were exactly as advertised (actually beyond what you might've heard) - no bull or exaggeration 2. Pat cared deeply about her girls. Contrary to myth she wasn't the screamer people think. She was tough and exceptionally demanding but players wanted to please her. And she cared deeply about them all.
Both of these are summed up nicely. Not only did she care deeply about her players, but she cared about people in general. That on court glare was scary as hell, but off the court she was nice as can be.... at least to myself and others that were working around the department while students.

I truly hope and pray they can find a cure for this sometime in the near future. Such a terrible disease for anyone to be afflicted with but especially a person that had to have a high degree of intelligence and organizational skills to be as successful as she was.I wasn't necessarily a big fan of women's basketball, but I definitely have respect for anyone who was as successful as she was in her field
