Two women's basketball assistants leaving

USF women's basketball coach Jose Fernandez has some hiring to do, as assistant coaches Jaida Williams and Shalon Pillow resigned Friday to accept jobs at other schools.

Williams, an assistant for the last two seasons, is expected to take a job at Santa Barbara, while Pillow, who spent two years as an assistant after one season as director of basketball operations, will be an assistant at Hofstra. Fernandez's DOBO this past season, Andy Christensen, resigned earlier this month to accept a high school job in Indiana. Fernandez, Williams and Pillow could not be reached for comment Friday.

That leaves top assistant Jeff Osterman as the only remaining member of Fernandez's coaching staff. Fernandez has led the Bulls to postseason appearances in each of the last five seasons, most recently a return trip to the Women's NIT, where USF lost to Florida Gulf Coast in the opening round.

UCF Rocks is not only a USF Student, but a fat, ugly, stupid USF student who has no class and makes real USF fans look bad. USF's fans don't need to worry about UCF, they are like Stetson to us, just another low quality mid-major team to fill our volleyball non-conference schedule.
SRH quit it. Show some class.

I am becoming more and more convinced that he is actually a USF student who is just trying to make ucf look bad. Why would any ucf student pay such close attention to another school's blog, and how could anyone possibly be so stupid.

Psst. It's women's basketball. Fernandez isn't new. Gotta read the stuff a little more thoroughly before throwing up the generic comment ...

There are major problems with the basketball team over there. You guys just got a new head coach and turn over already. Wow. USF should do background checks on the coaches they hire.
