Tennessee Lady Vols head coach Pat Summitt's direct coaching style is as straight and sharp as her crisply tailored pantsuits. Summitt has compiled more than 1,000 wins and eight NCAA Division I titles in 36 seasons at Tennessee.

One of the most iconic figures in college basketball, John Thompson's imposing frame intimidated players and refs alike as he led Georgetown to three NCAA title games, including a championship in 1984.
