I remember every player-every single one-who wore the Tennessee orange, a shade that our rivals hate, a bold, aggravating color that you can usually find on a roadside crew, "or in a correctional institution," as my friend Wendy Larry jokes. But to us the color is a flag of pride, because it identifies us as Lady Vols and therefore as women of an unmistakable type. Fighters. I remember how many of them fought for a better life for themselves. I just met them halfway.

I've got a great staff and great support system, and I'm going to stick my neck out and do what I always do.

Individual success is a myth. No one succeeds all by herself.

I think the only thing that I really thought about, I am always every year thinking about how I can get better, how my stuff can get better, how our team can improve.

If you don't want responsibility, don't sit in the big chair. To be successful, you must accept full responsibility

If I'm not leading by example, then I'm not doing the right thing. And I want to always do the right thing.

In order to grow, you must accept new responsibilities, no matter how uncertain you may feel or how unprepared you are to deal with them.
