Figured she would have already been in the HOF... oh well congrats!

Pat is the third to be inducted into this particular HOF. It's more about her impact on players, associates, etc. from a leadership and economics point of view rather than basketball related.

Yeah....when I first saw it on the UT site I was thinking...."How is there a Tennessee HOF she's not already been in for 10+ years...?"

To be honest I thought she went in, in the first class!

I scratched my head when I read this. The UT women's HOF building should already bear her name.

Was Mike Hamilton holding her back? lol

PS was part of the inaugural class of the women's basketball HOF in 1999. The next year she and Isiah Thomas were inducted into the basketball HOF. PS was named the Naismith basketball coach of the (20th) century in April of 00'.
