Summitt was hired in 1974 as the Lady Vols head coach at 22. She resigned from her coaching job in 2012, one year after going public with her diagnosis of early-onset dementia. "I think it is what it is," Summitt told People in February 2013. "I didn't want to hear it [the diagnosis]. But it was reality, you know. You don't want to run away from it.

Exclusive: 'The Other Guys' Director Adam McKay Wants Jim Carrey Or Ed Norton For Lee Atwater Biopic
Adam McKay is coming off the high of a $35.6 million opening for "The Other Guys" and is readying plans to adapt the ultra-dark comic series, "The Boys," for the big screen. He's also eyeing a smaller project that would mark his most mature cinematic work to date: a darkly comic take on the life of Lee Atwater, the Gop political consultant perhaps most infamous for George Bush's race-baiting Willie Horton during the 1988 presidential campaign.
In an interview with MTV News, McKay talked about why the project interests him so greatly, why the movie will be anything but preachy, and why Jim Carrey or Ed Norton might be the perfect actor to play Atwater.
MTV: "The Other Guys" clearly has some political themes going on, and now we hear about this Lee Atwater biopic. Is Adam McKay maturing before our very eyes?
Adam McKay: Aw, man — I am doing "The Boys" next!
