Pat Summitt is going on a U.S. postage stamp. 🧡
The United States Postal Service announced that Pat will be honored with her own stamp in 2027.
During her 38 seasons at Tennessee, she won 1,098 games and eight national championships. She also helped change the way women’s basketball was viewed in this country and raised the standard for how female athletes should be supported.
The stamp features a portrait of Pat created by artist Roberto Parada and was designed by USPS art director Ethel Kessler.
There is something really special about knowing her face will soon be carried on letters sent across the country. Pat spent her life investing in people, and this stamp will be another way her story continues to reach them.
She always said, “You win in life with people.” This honor feels like a beautiful reflection of just how many people she reached.
We could not be more proud to see Coach Summitt honored in this way. 🧡

It's not every day we get a chance to say we helped save a life. The Go fund me is at $16k, but that doesn't touch what is coming. If you all can help by sharing or giving, please do. The young man deserves it.
Tennessee LB Edwin Spillman was just 3 years old growing up in Sierra Leone, when his life would take a turn he never thought possible.
Now he plays a game he loves for the family in the stands and the family in his heart ❤️ @MartySmithESPN
The fourth-year star QB needed his defense to set records rushing the passer, knocking down a final second heave to win.
The 18-year old in his first SEC start made a ton of mistakes but had a throw to win it.
Vols defense was incredible. Learned a lot today. Big time stuff.
I saw an 18-year-old sacked 10 times, go into the medical tent then return, and play on the biggest stage in front of the President. He played his heart out until the very last second left the clock. I'll take his heart, experience will come. 🧡🍊🏈
This week you’ll hear many claim at Austin was founded first.
Wrong.
Blount College was founded Sept. 1, 1794. The TN legislature renamed it the University of Tennessee on March 10, 1879. at Austin opened Sept. 15, 1883.
1794 or 1879 UT came first. There’s only one UT. 🟠⚪
