Albright calling it quits. Looks to help others.

Last week I was fortunate enough to sit down with recently retired women’s basketball coach Jane Albright. After a lifetime spent in the sport, Albright seemed ready for retirement.

“My dogs are very happy with it,” explained Albright, “they’ve had two walks a day instead of one.” She described conversations with people close to her that “usually would be five minutes, six minutes, and then they’d say ‘I know you gotta go,’” that can now be longer conversations.

Albright has been a head coach since her playing career ended in 1977, starting as a graduate assistant for the legendary Pat Summitt in Tennessee.
