The sport B permeates everyday life from offices to farm- lands, from coal mines to neighborhood drug stores. It is more than just a sport played in the cold winter months. It is a source of pride filled year-round with anticipation, hope and celebration. Kentuckians love their basketball, and the tradition-rich University of Louisville program has supplied its fans with one of the nation’s finest products for decades. Legendary coach Bernard “Peck” Hickman, a Basketball Hall of Fame nominee, arrived on the UofL campus in 1944 to begin a remarkable string of 46 consecutive winning seasons. For 23 seasons, Hickman laid an impressive foundation for UofL. John Dromo, an assistant coach under Hickman for 19 years, continued the Louisville program in outstanding fashion following Hickman’s retirement. For 30 years, Denny Crum followed the same path of success that Hickman and Dromo both walked, guiding the Cardinals to even higher acclaim. Now, Coach Rick Pitino energized a re-emergence in building upon the rich UofL tradition in his 16 years, guiding the Cardinals to the 2013 NCAA championship, NCAA Final Fours in 2005 and 2012 and the NCAA Elite Eight five of the past 10 sea- sons.

  • Pat Summitt, Champion for Women & Winningest D-I Hoops Coach
    Pat Summitt, Champion For Women & Winningest D-I Hoops Coach, Has Died (Video) Imagine the indignity: You play 40 minutes to a standstill and, in the sacred compact of sports, now face overtime—yet because your game is a prelim to a men’s game, you’re forced to play OT with a running clock lest the tip-off to the main event be delayed. That’s what happened to Pat Summitt’s Tennessee Lady Vols at LSU in 1979. It was only one of countless affronts that Summitt, who has died at 64 of early-onset dementia, Alzheimer’s type, endured over a career in which she nonetheless won eight NCAA titles and a record 1,098 games and changed the way Americans regard women’s sports. Wash the uniforms. Drive the van. Make do. Make history. It may be unworthy to evaluate Summitt by using a man as a point of reference, after all she did to stiffen the spine of women’s sports so they might stand on their own. But as a cultural figure and coach without peer, she was to Tennessee what Bear Bryant was to Alabama: feared, revered, iconic. No disrespect intended—and Summitt herself never skimped on propriety, even as she put a padded shoulder to closed doors as if it were a battering ram—but consider for a moment the chorus line of men who served alongside her in Knoxville over 38 years: In football, Bill Battle, Johnny Majors, Phillip Fulmer, Lane Kiffin and Derek Dooley; In men’s basketball, Ray Mears, Don DeVoe, Wade Houston, Kevin O’Neill, Jerry Green, Buzz Peterson, Bruce Pearl and Cuonzo Martin.
