The 1991/92 Lady Vols Basketball team was a talented and driven squad, with many players who went on to become legends in the sport. One such player was Daedra Charles, who had played an instrumental role in the team's success over the past few seasons. When the team hosted the SEC-Big 10 Challenge, Charles returned to Knoxville expecting to be part of a surprise scholarship presentation for head coach Pat Summitt. However, Summitt had a surprise of her own in store: she announced that Charles' No. 32 jersey would be retired and hung in the rafters of Thompson-Boling Arena, making her just the third Lady Vol to receive this honor.

Charles had more than earned this recognition, having been a two-time All-American and the winner of the prestigious Wade Trophy in 1991. Her skill, leadership, and dedication to the Lady Vols had helped propel the team to great heights, including multiple SEC titles and NCAA championships. With the retirement of her jersey, Charles joined a select group of Lady Vols who had left an indelible mark on the program and on women's basketball as a whole. The 1991/92 Lady Vols Basketball team was undoubtedly one of the greatest of its era, and the retirement of Daedra Charles' jersey was a fitting tribute to her immense talent and contributions to the team's success.
