Pat Summit dies at 64. Salute to one of the greatest coaches in sports history.

She began coaching at age 22 (U. of Tennessee) making $8,900,  two years after Title IX and several years before woman's basketball became a NCAA sanctioned sport.  In her career as head coach,  she was 112 -23,  with 18 Final Four appearances and 8 National Championships.  She never had a losing season,  and since 1982,  every girl coming into her program made it to the Final Four at least once.
