Pat Summitt: A Gift to Love

The things Coach Summitt did for women's basketball and basketball as a whole will last a lifetime!

She carried this passage in her planner.  Great thoughts for everyone in leadership

You can love me, but only I can make me happy.
You can teach me, but only I can do the learning.
You can lead me, but only I can walk the path.
You can promote me, but I have to succeed.
You can coach me, but I have to win the game.
You can pity me, but I have to bear the sorrow.
For the Gift of Love is not a food that feeds me
It is the sunshine that nourished that which I must finally harvest for myself.
So if you love me don't just sing me your song
Teach me to sing, for when I am alone
I will need the melody.
