Pat spent a total of 38 years as the head coach of the Tennessee Volunteers. She had a record of 1,098-208 in that span of time.
Losing Pat is tough to anyone who loves sports to the truest form. She was the example of how to do things right in sports and in life.
I remember when I was in middle school, Pat came up to my high school to watch a great women’s basketball player who was dominating at our high school.
Pat sat in the gym and watch Shanna Zolman, now Shanna Crossley, play.
