"It shows what she's done through the years, the consistency and the amazing things she's done with her program at Stanford. She's been an icon in women's basketball for so long and I really enjoyed the times we've competed against each other. She's just a fantastic human being and it couldn't happen to a better person or a better basketball coach."
