| Summitt is FREAKING OUT...
Why is she constantly railing on this team? Pat, Mrs. Old School, thinks that more work is the answer to everything. Not a bad philosophy--but she's misses the point about this team: It's very young and not very talented, and yelling out them constantly and kicking them out of the lockerroom probably won't help. I the duke game, and duke was clearly the better team in every way. I'm not saying effort isn't an issue at times--but I do know that talent is an issue. When you've only got one point guard, a pint-size freshman; when you're shooting guard lacks quickness; when your promising small forward (Stricklin) is playing waaay out of position (pg!), when your bigs are all young and slow; you've got problems. The team struggles to score, but that's been a UT problem for years. Hey, PS will always get the benefit of the doubt--and we'll see what happens from here. I truly think PS should retire soon. |

Since you used the word truly, I'm assuming you aren't being sarcastic, just asinine.

| Back to back championships. Has a young team that she is trying to get mentally tougher....her youngest to date and she should retire? Armchair....maybe it time for you to retire from posting. To suggest Pat hang it up is about the funniest thing I have ever read! | |

| This is the most idiotic post I have seen in some time. I'll gladly trust the judgement of someone with 30+ years experience, 1000+ wins, and 8 NCs in both how to coach and when to call it a career. | |

| This team is talented and I predict they will all leave UT with NC championship rings.In a few years when they are raising the new banner in TBA, you can look back and see how wrong you were about this group of Lady Vols.

| She's railing on them because they deserve it. I don't care if they're young, small, slow or half retarded, there are some things, simple things, these girls should be doing and they're not producing. Feeling sorry for them is not going to accomplish anything. You don't think these girls knew what they were signing up for when they committed to Pat Summitt? | |

| I think that might be the worst post in volnation history. Pat Summitt has forgot more about basketball than you'll ever know. | |
