Jose Fernandez — the face and heartbeat of USF women's basketball — has officially shifted into a new opportunity.
He's head coach of the WNBA's Dallas Wings, which he intends to stock with the world's greatest players in pursuit of a championship.
"It's something every coach aspires to,'' Fernandez said on Monday, shortly after all the contractual terms had been completed. "This is professional basketball, the highest level. If you're ever going to make a move like this, it's the right time. It was not an easy decision by any means, but I am excited and I am at peace.
