This absolutely breaks my heart. Coach Summitt did not deserve this, not after all that she gave to her players, the University of Tennessee, and basketball in general. She was a remarkable human being that deserves nothing but respect and admiration. RIP Pat, you are missed but will never be forgotten. ❤️
FOREVER my favorite coach at any level and any sport. Those crystal blue eyes and that.......STARE!!!!! Continue to rest in peace Coach Summitt thank you. 🏀
I miss that woman!! Here in east TN none of our programs are the same anymore with her not here,she would even put the football team in check when need be! We miss you Pat! #Ibackpat
This was a tremendous tribute to one of the greatest people walking the face of the earth. Not only a great basketball coach, but one of the best life coaches the ladies that played for her could ever ask for.
Pat Summitt was and will forever be the GOAT for college basketball. A fact, no disputes. Most winning-est coach- not additional qualifiers needed. Imagine what she would’ve done if she didn’t retire and leave us all so soon. A class act- she exuded what it means to be a coach. And her players showed that every single time they walked out on the court. -when the coach supports you in all areas and isn’t afraid to both call you out and then work with you. You will put out your all for them. She will always be missed. As a VOL some ppl will forever hold a spot in my heart: Coach Pat, Coach Fulmer (they didn’t him so dirty), Payton Manning, Candace Parker, Tamika Catchings, Chamique Holdsclaw, etc. - oh and if you don’t who those talented athletes are- do you really bleed Orange?
Someone should do a Pat Summit biopic. She’s a legend. The woman told her airline pilot there was no way her son would be born in Virginia. She had so many great moments that would make for great cinema.
I'm really REALLY REALLY going to miss her. Haven't really watched WCBB since she retired. I'm glad she is at peace I don't live anywhere near Tennessee but I've been a Lady Vols fans ever since I was a child and its all because of Pat. Rest in Heaven, Rest in Glory, Rest in Love, Rest in Peace.
I can't speak about Coach Summitt. I did not know her. But I think I can speak from the prospective of her son Tyler. I don't know him. But I think I do KNOW him. My mother transitioned to the arms of Christ Jesus thanks to Alzheimer's at the age of 66 in 2013. I discovered what true love is during the years of her journey with this disease. I learned that true love is the ability to clean feet, comb hair, assist with bathroom situations, and to handle anger with joy. In some ways I thank Alzheimer's for bringing me closer to my mother, of whom I was already close to. My faith tells me that Coach Summitt and my mother, Lula Bennett are having good times with Jesus. And Tyler? Have no fret my brother: we will be with them again and this thing called Alzheimer's will be forgotten. God bless you Tyler, your mom, and my mamma.
"Lead by example". You most certainly did that Ms. Pat. Even in your absence you will continue to touch lives and continue to make a difference. What a legacy...what a tremendous example of God's grace.
even peyton manning got emotional about broadcasting Coach Summitt's record!! such a beautiful coach and the best ever 1,098 wins in 38 years! no one will ever be as good!! yet she is still sitting on the bench !! :)
Coach Summitt's one of my role models and I'm a better person for it. I can only imagine the impact she's had on people who've actually been able to work with her. The way she faces adversity is admirable, she doesn't see anything as a problem, she faces it as a challenge. I remember reading what she said when asked what she'll be doing this coming fall. She said "I'll either be at practice or in my office." God bless you Coach, my prayers and best wishes are with you.
I really appreciate Pat Summit and her leardership. She will always be a leader in all she endeavors and backing her is the one thing we all can do to support her:) I loved the story of her life and her humble acceptance of the award, along side her son Tyler standing so proudly beside her.
beautiful woman inside and out..I love the Lady Vols and the men's football team and that was because of Pat Summitt... God Bless you and I hate to see you go through this. keep starring with those eyes even if it's from up above
The GOAT!!!! No matter what comes, no matter if another coach surpasses her record there still will never be a coach greater than Pat. I miss watching her coach so much. Tennessee Lady Vols will never be the same.😥
Got to meet her twice at UT. The first was when she and Bruce Pearl showed up at a cafeteria to do a raffle. Got a picture with her that's long gone on an old flip phone. She was so sweet and kind. The second time was right before a Lady Vols game. I was in Air Force ROTC at the time (I didn't go into the AF afterwards), and I helped present the colors before a Lady Vols game. We were milling about, getting ready for the presentation when all of the sudden, here comes the famous brown pantsuit. Her blue eyes lit up in a huge smile as she passed us. "Hey, guys! Thanks for what you do!" "Thanks, Coach!" Loved every brief moment with her. Despite her tough reputation, she was kind and loving. Rest in Peace, Coach!
met her at a AAU tournament at Disney World in 2005. Turned around and she was standing there with a few assistants. I told her I know your busy but can we get a few pics. She smiled and said sure. I still have and cherish those pics. My daughter attended her camp at UT in 2011. She was even more approachable then. Best coach ever any sport and gender.
She brought womes basketball out of the shadows to the fore front of colllege athletics she gave us lady vol fans something to cheer about and to look forward to my God her accomplishments are legendary and ladies if people tell you that you cannot succeed just look at Pat Summitt to see that you can............
It's definitely gonna be hard not seeing Pat on the court. I never thought the day would come where Pat Summit would have to quit coaching. She is the greatest of all time not just changing the game but changing the people she coached. Everyone in Tennessee and across the nation will be praying and cheering for Pat to overcome this. We all know she will, Pat never loses. We love you and we will miss you on the court Pat.
What a truly great person who made our world a much better place because she was a part of it. This was when the award truly meant something and given to someone who truly deserved it. (Sadly hasn't always been the case.)
Met her back in 06,wish my picture of her that I took didn't turn out bad, but even thenI noticed that,yeah extremely tough lady, but man she was one person anyoone would easily call Mom
14:36 She was a pioneer in the same way Red Aurbach and Billie Jean King were, just to name a few. She made a pathetic salary but she still found the time to drive the bus, wash the uniforms, take the tickets at the turnstiles all while promoting women's college basketball and doing whatever it took to move the sport forward. There will never be another like Pat Summit.
God bless Pat. Hopefully, she was unaware of Tyler's shenanigans, I'm sure he's absolutely mortified, guilt-ridden & grief-stricken right now. Just too much too soon for him.
Hopefully Rick, she was long gone so she would not be ashamed of her son's pecadillo, she didn't raised him to screw up like that. so stay classy Rick. RIP
Does anyone by any chance know the piece that is playing from 9:20 - 10:10. I tried the song that was in the information section but it doesn't include that part. I have been searching for this piece since this ESPY's aired lol.
guys if anyone knows the piece of music playing from 9:20-10:00 PLEASE PLEASE let me know the song.... for some reason it reminds me of a Steve Jablonsky type movie score but if anyone knows what it is let me know asap.... thanks... it made the entire Pat Summitt video so much more inspirational... great story as well
Does anyone know the name of the last song being played at the end? The guitar sounds so beautiful to me. Watching this back then made me cry when I heard that song. Such a strong lady.
9:19-10:10 --> SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME THE NAME TO THAT MUSIC PIECE!!!! I swear I feel like I've heard it in some movie before... Big ups to Coach Pat again!!!
Let me tell you about that wonderful young man, Tyler, who helped her onto the stage. Tyler was married. A family man. He became head coach of Louisiana Tech WBB. He made one of the players his side chick. He started giving her extra privileges and made the other girls jealous. He got her pregnant. He left his wife. He was fired. His side check left school, he went to be with her. It was really the most offensive load of BS anyone who has ever coached has ever heard of. It was as bad as that lady in Seattle that got pregnant by her student then went to prison and came out of prison and married him.
Someone needs to do a documentary or a movie on her. She’s incredible and I’ve always love the Volunteers ❤️
Seriously!
I agree sis
Totally agree.. a Pat Movie would be amazing
I've been saying that for along time.
Yes indeed!
PAT SUMMITT = LEGEND
Pat Summit is the epitome of what all humans should aspire to be. She's a grand example for everyone.
RZ
The greatest basketball coach and leader of women in the history of the game! You are greatly missed PAT! Go VOLS!! 💯❤️💯
Today we awarded her with our Andrus Award for her incredible work in Alzheimer's advocacy. Well deserved, Coach.
She has so much more to give! She didn’t deserve her life to end the way it did
This absolutely breaks my heart. Coach Summitt did not deserve this, not after all that she gave to her players, the University of Tennessee, and basketball in general. She was a remarkable human being that deserves nothing but respect and admiration. RIP Pat, you are missed but will never be forgotten. ❤️
Amen sis. I miss her too.
FOREVER my favorite coach at any level and any sport. Those crystal blue eyes and that.......STARE!!!!! Continue to rest in peace Coach Summitt thank you. 🏀
May Pat Summit forever rest in peace. One of the greatest if not the greatest of all time. Love, prayers, and support.
Tyler is a dipshit... she/you all used him as a vehicle. and he's a flunk...
The more I watch the more it makes me cry.
Yess
Tracy Hopp same! I love her ❤️
Even Peyton was holding back his tears
Vol representing and RESPECTING Vol
I miss that woman!! Here in east TN none of our programs are the same anymore with her not here,she would even put the football team in check when need be! We miss you Pat! #Ibackpat
This was a tremendous tribute to one of the greatest people walking the face of the earth. Not only a great basketball coach, but one of the best life coaches the ladies that played for her could ever ask for.
Crying. Love you Pat, always and forever.
I TRULY LOVED and ADMIRE the AUDACITY of THIS wonderful coach and wonderful woman! 🥰
We love you Pat 💜
I cried.
What a tough strong woman.
Your going to be missed. A Tenn. Legend. It's a sad day in TN. Rest In Peace Coach Pat.
So many of her players were inspired by her steely eyed take no prisoners approach . A true pioneer in the game.
Pat Summitt was and will forever be the GOAT for college basketball. A fact, no disputes. Most winning-est coach- not additional qualifiers needed.

She will always be missed.

Who in the world would play her!!!! Whoever it would be would have to practice THE STARE!!! I miss her 🏀
@@nr30199You're right! Who on earth could do that role real justice? Pat was one of a kind!!!💯❤❤❤
I'm really REALLY REALLY going to miss her. Haven't really watched WCBB since she retired. I'm glad she is at peace I don't live anywhere near Tennessee but I've been a Lady Vols fans ever since I was a child and its all because of Pat. Rest in Heaven, Rest in Glory, Rest in Love, Rest in Peace.
Pat summit is an example of a woman who denied fear may she forever live on in the spirit of others
In my opinion one of the top 5 greatest coaches of all time man or woman. I’m from NY and she turned me into a lady VOLS fan. RIP Coach 🙏🏽
I think all of us knows how difficult it is to influence others, Coach Summitt got it right.
You will forever be missed.....You are a legend, You are a titan, You are courage and grace personified.....Rest In Peace Pat Summitt!
We in East Tennessee are very lucky to have this incredible lady!
I can't speak about Coach Summitt. I did not know her. But I think I can speak from the prospective of her son Tyler. I don't know him. But I think I do KNOW him.

I did not tear up watching this until her mom started speaking..
That got me, too! So very sad!
Pat Summit, Rest In Peace legend!! A true inspiration!
One of the greatest of all time! A true legend!
True
RIP Coach. You were a beacon to us all and an inspiration. The best there ever was.
Pat Summit excelled at player development so much so that the formation of the WNBA came about.
"Lead by example". You most certainly did that Ms. Pat. Even in your absence you will continue to touch lives and continue to make a difference. What a legacy...what a tremendous example of God's grace.
What a fantastic coach and woman!
Right after retiring early because of the disease that ultimately took her life way too soon at age 64. RIP Coach Summitt.
I started watching women’s bball during Pat Summitt reign. Miss you Pat 😘
More of her, please. She is/was amazing human/woman/leader.
Much love to coach Pat from the Auburn family
even peyton manning got emotional about broadcasting Coach Summitt's record!! such a beautiful coach and the best ever 1,098 wins in 38 years! no one will ever be as good!! yet she is still sitting on the bench !! :)

Rest in peace and thank you for making me proud to be a University of Tennessee student and lifetime Vol!
Miss seeing Coach Pat Summitt. She was legendary... She was and IS BASKETBALL!! We stand on her shoulders! 🏀❤

I cried. We Back Pat
The GOAT!!!! No matter what comes, no matter if another coach surpasses her record there still will never be a coach greater than Pat. I miss watching her coach so much. Tennessee Lady Vols will never be the same.😥
Not a National Championship goes by that I don't think it should be Tennessee. The world misses you Pat!

I love how Tyler is always by her side
+Catie Harper# And don't forget along side other CHICS banging them who is not his WIFE.
.
I wonder if his wife was there too or the girl he was "coaching". I like to call her "Monica Drippingcum Lewinsky."
Coach Summit - you are a legend and will forever be loved in Tennessee. Thank you for everything. RIH.
Pat Summitt is an amazing lady. I had the privilege of interviewing her when I worked at The Happy Herald. Thank you for this video.
It's definitely gonna be hard not seeing Pat on the court. I never thought the day would come where Pat Summit would have to quit coaching. She is the greatest of all time not just changing the game but changing the people she coached. Everyone in Tennessee and across the nation will be praying and cheering for Pat to overcome this. We all know she will, Pat never loses. We love you and we will miss you on the court Pat.
Legend, rest in peace.
What a truly great person who made our world a much better place because she was a part of it. This was when the award truly meant something and given to someone who truly deserved it. (Sadly hasn't always been the case.)
She was just the best. Great coach and possibly a better person.
Watching this after hearing the news about Pat being in the hospital and not sure if she'll make it much longer. It's a sad day!!
Those damn onions!
Wat?
Pat Summitt is amazing!!
Love u pat
8:41🥺🥺 Literally Reminds of ME in the words of The Amazing Candace Parker, of My Abuelita🇲🇽💯🥺
im praying for you pat!! stay strong!
In the awesome words of Jim Valvano don't give up don't ever give up!!
Rest In Peace
Met her back in 06,wish my picture of her that I took didn't turn out bad, but even thenI noticed that,yeah extremely tough lady, but man she was one person anyoone would easily call Mom
Rest in peace, Pat.
What an amazing woman and story 💗
She’s now coaching Gigi
rest in peace
Pat we love and miss you. :) you'll always be #1 in my book
10:21 We miss you coach!!!
What a lady.
Pat lost her battle, but she'll get the W in the end because of her foundation. She's not done.
14:36 She was a pioneer in the same way Red Aurbach and Billie Jean King were, just to name a few. She made a pathetic salary but she still found the time to drive the bus, wash the uniforms, take the tickets at the turnstiles all while promoting women's college basketball and doing whatever it took to move the sport forward. There will never be another like Pat Summit.
i cant believe bruce jenner has this the same reward smh
It's an absolute disgrace, you're right about that.
Agreed. Such a dishonor to people like Coach Summitt
The second greatest coach in college sports history to me behind Bobby Knight
Pat Summit >
rip 😭😭😭😭
God bless Pat. Hopefully, she was unaware of Tyler's shenanigans, I'm sure he's absolutely mortified, guilt-ridden & grief-stricken right now. Just too much too soon for him.
Luckily her mind was probably as erased as her son's sense of morality.
All entitled for their opinion and I agree. But let's leave it out for today.
Hopefully Rick, she was long gone so she would not be ashamed of her son's pecadillo, she didn't raised him to screw up like that. so stay classy Rick.
RIP
Go Vols #TeamPat
RIP
She's the female version of Bobby Knight
Does anyone by any chance know the piece that is playing from 9:20 - 10:10. I tried the song that was in the information section but it doesn't include that part. I have been searching for this piece since this ESPY's aired lol.
Who could down-vote this ? You have no heart.
Her son Tyler is a stain on his mother’s legacy. She would be so disappointed.
Shut up
guys if anyone knows the piece of music playing from 9:20-10:00 PLEASE PLEASE let me know the song.... for some reason it reminds me of a Steve Jablonsky type movie score but if anyone knows what it is let me know asap.... thanks... it made the entire Pat Summitt video so much more inspirational... great story as well
What's the music when she get the award at 12:34 ? #RIP
Does anyone know the name of the last song being played at the end? The guitar sounds so beautiful to me. Watching this back then made me cry when I heard that song. Such a strong lady.
Great Person! Who's music is that ?
What's the name of the different songs played during this presentation; especially the last one?
9:19-10:10 --> SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME THE NAME TO THAT MUSIC PIECE!!!! I swear I feel like I've heard it in some movie before... Big ups to Coach Pat again!!!
Who else here for gym
i like Pat
Hun kom i mål...
