This makes too much sense. Maybe the NCAA will get this right.

No, but like Bear Bryant having his name on the football COY, the Women's Basketball Coach of the Year award should absolutely become the Pat Summitt Award.

The AP's football national title trophy has also been named after Bryant since his death.

Sure, that would make sense and I would support that.

Naw... it was painfully obvious before her illness Geno Auriemma was better. Dying doesn't change that.

it's also painfully obvious though that Geno is a douche bag. Summitt is the better person all around.

Why? There are other ways to honor her legacy.

Also, signing an internet petition will accomplish nothing.

I would appreciate it if you guys could take a couple of minutes to sign and share a petition to have Pat Summitt's name on the NCAA women's championship trophy...thanks much!!!



If we are going to name the trophy, shouldn't the greatest women's basketball coach of all time get that honor?

It should be named the Mulkey RBF Award of Achievement.

Bringing up the fact that Geno > Pat seems to rustle UTjr fans even more than their current losing streaks in football.

Primacy doesn't give you credit for the accomplishments of those that came after you and surpassed you. Otherwise, there would be no Phil Jackson without Del Harris and Doug Collins.

It's a championship trophy, not a humanitarian award. Racist arse Adolph Rupp has an award named after him. Precedence has been set.

I have no problem with this. From all accounts she was a great lady. But when Bear died, he was the clear GOAT, so naming the COY award made absolute sense. We currently have a coach in womens basketball who has 11 national championships and counting

Maybe a humanitarian annual award should be invented in the name of Pat

Signed. Regardless if it goes anywhere or not I think it's well deserved.

Someone said that Wooden was on the POY and the men's championship trophy... but I haven't been able to find that anywhere.
