First of all, I would like to send prayers and condolences to the family of Tasha Butts during their time of bereavement. My first memory was in 1997 when I returned to my home stae and city of Macon GA and the buzz around girl's high school basketball was a Phenom named Tasha Butts. I got a chance to see her play and was ecstatic when she chose the Lady Vols for her college career.
