Tennessee Lady Vols coach Pat Summitt has been diagnosed with early-onset dementia. The legendary coach announced her status to fans and supporters via a video earlier today, and said she plans to continue coaching as long as her condition allows.
Summitt is the winningest coach in the history of college basketball - men's or women's, with 1,071 victories. The all-time leader on the men's side of Division I, Bob Knight, won 902 games during his career. Her eight national championships rank second only to John Wooden.
