Her piece on the ESPYS tonight was one of the greatest things I've ever seen. Makes me even more proud to be a Vol fan. Pat, Peyton, Candace Parker and Tennessee were all trending on Twitter. The Vols are conquering the world!! VFL!!!

The most impressive thing that stood out to me was "in 38 years of coaching, she graduated all of her players". WOW!

Greatest documentary I've ever seen. Pat is truly a class act and the most courageous woman I've ever met. God Bless Pat Summitt!

It created a rare tear-up for me. That or some dust got in my eyes. It was one of the best pieces I've ever seen on ESPN. I'd love to see a 30on30 done on her.

I think my allergies are acting up. Honestly, a very moving segment and a great representation of our icon. Pat is a shining example of what can be great in college sports.

Great piece on Pat.
When Tyler walked on stage with her, he is wearing an A pin on his jacket. Is that Alzeimer's pin? Looks like the Alabama "A"

That was an awesome piece on Pat and it made me swell with pride that she was apart of UT for so long and did her job with such class and grace.

Pat is the same in person in real life as what you see on the TV and on the court. She is the real deal. Tough, determined, caring, fun, inspirational - simply a great leader and person. The tribute and award were really important and moving.

Not only has she had six miscarriages, she overcame breast cancer, has rumatoid arthritis, had shoulder surgery after her run in with the racoons and now has early onset dementia. SMDH. She just keeps on keeping on.

She is one tough lady. However, I don't think she has had breast cancer because we haven't heard anything about that to this point...unless you know something the general public doesn't. She will keep on keeping on! God Bless Pat Summitt!
