Women's CBB hasn't been the same without her on the sidelines. I was reading something this morning about her and Sue Gunther and LSU and it just hit me that the draw to the game hasn't been the same since she left.


Look I am no WBB fan. Watched more in the past than now. But this has really been emotional. We all wish we could have the impact on people that she had.

Former Tennessee men’s basketball player Brian Williams, who played for former coach Bruce Pearl from 2007-11, went on Facebook to share one of his favorite memories of Summitt, who died early Tuesday morning. It was the time she took over a men’s practice. “We was goofing around and Pat was watching,” Williams wrote via 247Sports. “She got fed up and threw the ball and everyone stopped. She said, ‘Run sprints, and run them fast.'” The players looked at Pearl, hoping he’d step in. But he didn’t. “He looked back at us and walked away and sat down, and Pat ran the rest of practice,” Williams wrote. “I remember I threw up twice that day.” Williams added that he and the men’s team always respected Summitt — even before she made them run. “The amount of respect we had for her was unmatched, and the lives she created for thousands will never go unnoticed,” he wrote. “Thanks for everything, Pat.”
