Just finished up a little bit ago. Nell talked for a little while and seemed genuinely relieved that she is moving on to what's next and is not going to have the day-to-day stress of the coaching business. She said she really hasn't thought about what she's going to do next, but is looking forward to enjoying her time.

She said the atmosphere in college athletics right now isn't for her, but the transfer portal/NIL stuff wasn't the deciding factor in her retirement. She said she just felt like it was time. She also said she would be the biggest GT fan going forward and would help the next coach any way she could.

I'll have a bigger notes and quotes or feature-type story later tonight. She was very open and seemed like she was excited about the future.
