Al Buehler is retiring
I honestly thought he retired years ago. He's been coaching at Duke for 60 years!

Wow - he was married to Duke longer than he has been married to his wife.
Wishing Coach Buehler a healthy and wonderful retirement.
Hmm - he retires when the track does. Interesting coincidence.

Cool! I used to clean the Buehler's house a gazillion years ago. Congratulations to him

Re: Al Buehler is retiring
So glad Grant went forward with that wonderful tribute to him a couple of years ago. I hope a bust of him will soon join Cameron's and Wade's. Sympathies to his wife, who will now have him full time at home. She'll soon be asking "When do I retire?" I'm sure she's earned it, too.
Love, Ima

OMG--he was coaching at Duke when my mom was a junior there.
Happy Retirement, Coach Buehler!
