I mean WOW. What a speech. When they showed her mom I couldn't hold my tears back anymore! So beautiful. She is one of the greatest to ever do it, yet she used this time to thank so many people, even her deceased surgeon. So much class! A true inspiration!
That was awesome 👏🏾 👏🏾
And that folks is why Dawn Staley is the best basketball 🏀 coach in America. Over the past 3 years her record is 104-3 . Unparalleled.

Coach Dawn Staley, in one word, PHENOMENAL.
She was a beast. I watched her from college, and she never got the shine that Swoopes and Lisa Leslie did, but she was every bit as good. Very well earned.
YES INDEED...A SUPERSTAR🖖🏼👏🏿🌞🌟🌻🕊💖...
. . . 'to God, be the Glory' . . . thank You, Dawn Staley, this wonderful undefeated season, '23-'24, and your shining light for all to see.
My favorite part of this video is watching Dawn's mom look at her daughter.💖
Mom, you did it. Tears came to my eyes seeing mom there, probably remembering all the hard times, the smiles seeing her daughter accomplishments was a tear jerking moment tfor me. Moms understand moms. Thank you mom for being there for your daughter through thick and thin. This make my day.
Dang Dawn 😭this was an amazing speech. Glad I came across it. Your story should be a MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!
Let's make it happen!!!!!!!!!!!
She just won her 3rd National Championship with the South Carolina Gamecocks 2 days ago. She will be in the Hall of Fame for a 2nd time as a coach as well.
Phenomenal Coach phenomenal player, but yet of all a class act of a lady.

Have you seen her wiki page?
@@neetrab No. What's it say?
@@neetrab Yes I did if you're talking about how accomplished she was as a player. I remember watching her battle against Dena Head of Tennessee back in the late 80's early 90's.
Likewise
Standing ovation
The artist and teacher Robert Henri once said, "A work of art is the trace of a magnificent struggle." Dawn Staley is a work. of art.

At the 15:38 mark of this video Dawn told her players to stick with her and they would win a National Championship, true to her word tonight that occurred 04/02/2017. I've been a big fan of this woman for a long time so proud of her, she continues to inspire and win big.

Yep, she was the first female crush I had. Good game and good looks. It all started with her.
Bighou no lie all facts
Me Too......and Still Do😂
Big Facts
She is the reason I started watching women's basketball. She was sick.
I love Dawn Staley. Ten seconds ago she won her 2nd National Championship with South Carolina. Way to go Dawn!!!
How'd she die?

We are from the same neighborhood born 5 days after me in the same year abd hospital and to me the best female basketball player of all time.
We appreciate your contributions to Women 's Basketball and Beyond Dawn !!! We in Philly thank you for setting the bar High 🙏🏿💯✔️💫
This is probably my 3rd time watching this over time. Love Dawn. Was my aunt's homeroom classmate at Dobbins High in Philly.
huge fan of dawn staley, as a player, coach, and advocate....congratulatons!
Congratulations on your National Championship win tonight!!!
I started watching women' s basketball because of you Dawn Staley, and yes, your steps are divinely ordered, always remember that!!!
It's cool that she mentioned the press in her speech because they loved Dawn! They used to show her giving out work on the courts to men on the news all the time, and that was when they rarely showed high school sports on TV. She killed then, and throughout her career. She was the bomb, but she's still the 2nd best female balla in Philly: the best was Yolanda Laney!!!
Dawn so articulate and well spoken. 🙌🏽💯
Thank you for helping our Philly girls
Admired her since college, ABL, WNBA, and Team USA! Always keeps it real!!!🙏🏾❤️🙌🏽
One of the best to ever do it. But also, she was really the first female in basketball to make guys not only say a girl was good but fine as hell as well. Her play and looks always had me hooked on her.
Bighou all fac
Bighou facts.
Bighou and last of some good ass basketball. Sports has not been the same since the 90s and some part of early 2000s male and female
She is so amazing. I think she was put on this Earth to be someone for so many people. I hope her and her family have the best lives because she’s done so much for so many people
Congrats, coach Staley! Well deserved! Thank for being such an inspiration for so many people in and out of basketball!
Dawn is so DOPE!!! I’m a SC Gamecock fan and I’m from NC !!
Loved watching her play at UVA still a season ticket holder, but her years were “ Simply the Best”
She is just a great and humble human being. May the Lord continue to bless her not just in coaching but in life. One of my favorites.
What a wonderful person, leader and coach. Stay strong and be you.
Awesome. Never waver stay true to your convictions and God will truly bless you as he’s done for Ms. Dawn Staley. Congratulations coach job well done. 😊
Congrats Coach Dawn!! I have so much respect for Dawn. Her passion for her team is inspiring & beautiful
RESPECT DAWN Love you girl💯💪💯
Congratulations Coach Dawn Staley!!!!!!!
So proud of Dawn as a former student of Dobbins and Philly resident. The greatest character to truly represent Philadelphia.
Wow! Such a beautiful and humble person who has achieved what many people could only dream of. I love that she took the time to not only remember but to thank each and every person who have impacted her along the way, no matter how big or small. She is so deserving of this award and all the glory that God has bestowed upon her. May you continue to be BLESSED Queen!♥☺
Simply put for all of us....I LOVE HER!
Dawn looks good! I like the hair down. She is such a winner & teacher of people and has a heart of gold. Philly tough and an example of what all of us should be more like
That was a beautiful speech,. Incredible. ! A great coach with a huge story to tell. I have enjoyed hearing all about it , ! ⭐🌟Most importantly her finish to her speech. !
Awesome.
GOD BLESS Dawn Staley the more.
I've always been a huge fan.
I am a fan of the Lady Vols but my first introduction into watching women's basketball was watching my favourite lady baller Dawn Staley play at Virginia Been hooked ever since👍🏿
Beautiful speech
I've never heard a better speech!!! And I've heard plenty😊
At 16:43, she prophesied to her players, "Stick with me, and we will be national champions." She has achieved this three times as of 2024. Congratulations, Dawn Staley. 4/8/2024🎗
This lady is so humble and talented, Congratulations Champ
Her words to her South Carolina Gamecock nation "Stick with me - we will be national champs". Well, she certainly did- three times over since this speech. Love her story and how grateful she is to so many people in her life and her love of the USA and her realization and appreciation to God for her blessings. Her emotion while describing carrying the flag in the Olympics says a lot about her love of the USA and the integrity and foundation she certainly must have received from her family to appreciate that moment. Beautiful speech, great life story and love of America - hard to get any better than that. Well done- Dawn Staley - well done!
I LOVE U DAWN!!!
God bless you Dawn Staley
What an amazing and very thought out speech. You wrote it but more importantly read it in a way as if I were on the track with you in Greece. Thank you.
WOW. She is amazing. I remember her from the Olympic team years ago. She is all that and then some. Be proud, Dawn Staley! Yes to God be the Glory. Be proud He chose you, be proud He gifted you… be proud that through it all, you choose to give Him the glory for the blessings He gave you.
Congratulations coach Dawn 2024 NCAA Women CHAMPS, what a fantastic season 🏆🏆🏆❤

Hi there was one great speech by Dawn Staley how great she has become
1 of Philly's Finest. DOBBINS Tech 22nd & Lehigh. Same school that had BO KIMBEL, the late great HANK GATHERS & HORACE "PAPPY" OWENS.
She is so dope 2024
You da truth Dawn!!! ❤congratulations on your win today 🎉🎉
Best speech of the HOF inductees this year.
Love, love , love Dawn Staley!!!!
Shes quite a bit older than me, but I always thought this woman was beautiful. Such a classy lady.❤⚘
I enjoyed this immensely! All the best on Sunday!❤
I’m often taken aback just a little by the humility and gratitude expressed by so many people who achieve such great heights and honors! It’s inspiring listening to a speech like this and about all of the people who touch the lives of others and contribute to their success. And now, she is paying it forward through her foundation and coaching. Our country needs more and more people like this and Dawn is contributing to the development of more quality young women, and players, with her guidance and the example she sets.
She was a great player and is a great coach. I truly enjoyed watching her play college ball. I also watched her win The National Championship this year.
What a great leader and player!!
