Former Arkansas coach Gary Blair will retire at end of 2021-22 season

Longtime Texas A&M women's basketball coach Gary Blair announced Thursday that this season will be his last with the Aggies, with the 76-year-old set to retire at season’s end.

Blair has been at Texas A&M since 2003, leading the Aggies to a national championship in 2011.

“I always evaluate myself on: Am I giving everything I have, is my health good and am I still able to make an impact on young lives,” Blair said in a statement. “I am fortunate that my health is still great, and I believe that I can still make an impact on our student-athletes and that I can give all my effort every single day.
