Pat Summitt statue?

Who would be in favor of at some point seeing a statue erected of her in front of TBA? In my opinion, we took too long to get that done for Gen. Neyland. Let's not wait on it and have it done for Pat sometime in the near future.

I wish one could 'like' one's own OP.

I'd definitely donate to this cause as well.

And I know she's still around and doing as well as can be expected, but IMO it would be cool to have it done before it's "too late" so she could see it and enjoy it.

Agree 100% Michael Jordan had his statue at the United Center when he was still playing with the Bulls. Pat Summitt is in the class that she deserves a statue before retirement or death. She is that important to the University of Tennessee and womens basketball. Here is your statue. I think that would look good in bronze.

She absolutely deserves one and I'd back that decision 100%.

Meh, I personally would not support one. Not because I am against Pat, but because I have never seen a statue that looked good. They always seem to have the person in an odd position, or their face looks nothing like the person.

HOWEVER I would support one no matter how it looked if it was to replace that stupid tornado sculpture on pedestrian walkaway.
